The 1st President PGA Open Golf Championship fully endorsed by Punjab Golf Association (PGA) concluded here on Sunday and Muhammed Shahzad topped in the Professionals Category and Damil Ataullah in the Amateur Section and Hamna Amjad in the Ladies event at the par 72 PAF Skyview Golf Course.
A few other names also deserved a mention and they are Muhammed Akram (Senior Professional Winner ) ,Rehan Babar (Junior Professional Winner ) and Lt Col Mohammad Ayub (Senior Amateur Winner).
The golfing champions participating in this event found the competition rather brutal and only the most skillful ones ended up winning titles. As for these high achievers in the six day premier golfing activity Muhammed Shahzad of Lahore Garrison had the honor of prevailing over the otherwise unbeatable 200 titles winner, Muhammed Shabbir Iqbal in a contest of excellence and this hard working champion now finds himself as the new hero of professional golf in Pakistan .
In the race for high achievement amongst amateurs ,the very young one Damil Ataullah held sway over some strong adversaries to emerge as the best amateur .Vis a vis the ladies , Hamna Amjad, still in her teens found herself up against players like Abeeha Syed and Parkha Ijaz and played dauntlessly to emerge as the Ladies Title winner.—APP
