Gurugram, March 30 -- There are few things more spectacular in a golf tournament than chasing down the leader on the back nine of a golf tournament on Sunday. Leading into the final round is tricky. One must decide whether to play the percentage and let the chasing pack take the risks or stay in the bubble and execute. The mental steel so often turns into jelly. England's Alex Fitzpatrick produced a brilliant Sunday charge at the $2.55mn Hero Indian Open to win his first DP World Tour title by two shots over Spain's defending champion Eugenio Chacarra. The 27-year-old was a 4-under par on the back nine, with five birdies. It gave him the luxury of a double bogey on the par-5 18th before he covered his face in elation. The victory was worth 375,811 euros (approx. $433,817). Fitzpatrick, four shots off leader Chacarra overnight, shot a 3-under 69 to finish nine under for the tournament, dashing the 26-year-old Spaniard's hopes of becoming only the fourth player to defending the Indian Open. Two early bogeys gave no inkling of the young Briton's fight as he reeled off eight birdies - he had one more bogey. Seven shots ahead after the tough 17th, it was a parade as Fitzpatrick could afford a double bogey on the final hole. "It's been a lot of hard work for a long time. As much as this is the most amazing thing in the world right now, there's more important things in life than golf so... probably going to cry but yeah, ecstatic," he told the official interviewer moments after the win. "I just had to ask my caddie how many putts I had (to win) from six feet, so I think that says it all." It was a sweet fortnight for the Fitzpatrick family as older brother Matt, the 2022 US Open champion, won the Valspar Championship last week, his third PGA Tour title. Alex, who at 14 caddied for Matt's 2013 US Amateur Championship win, has been knocking on the door for a while on the DP World Tour. Besides a win on the Challenge Tour and runner-up in the 2023 ISPS Handa World Invitational in Northern Ireland, he was third in last year's DP World India Championship in Delhi. "I wouldn't say there's many brothers apart from the Hojgaards (Dutch twins Rasmus and Nicolai, the first brothers to win in back-to-back weeks on the DP World Tour)," he said. Chacarra, unshakable for three days, first showed nerves on the 11th when the chip off the rough led to bogey. It went downhill from there as the tough DLF Golf and Country Club course punished imprecise play. He shot a final day 75 to end 7-under for the tournament. South Africa's MJ Daffue, England's Andy Sullivan and France's Ugo Coussad were tied third at 5-under and Italy's 2018 Open champion Francesco Molinari tied sixth (-3). Fitzpatrick, in good form after a T6 in the Joburg Open before coming to India, started the day four behind the leader. When he bogeyed the third and fourth, it seemed game over. But he roared back with birdies in three of the last four holes on the front nine to get to within three shots of Chacarra. A bogey on the 10th put Chacarra 4-up, but birdies on 11, 12 and 13 lifted Fitzpatrick lifted him to one shot back. The Spaniard's nerves then showed in the dramatic par-5 15th that saw a two-shot switch. While Fitzpatrick birdied to go 10-under, Chacarra found bunker off the tee and his third shot rolled back down the greenside slope. It led to a bogey and his game went to pieces as he bogeyed 16th and 17th as well. Fitzpatrick birdied the tough 17th as well and it was job almost done....
