Ascot: Krathish Bopanna finished second in the Duke of Edinburgh Cup at the Millride Golf course here on Tuesday.
With a total of 72 Stableford points, Bopanna finished two points adrift of the winner Richard Wright from England.
Bopanna hit 11 pars and one birdie for a total of 40 points on day one at the Buckinghamshire Golf Course and followed it up with a score of 32 including nine pars on Day Two at the Millride Golf Course.
"Millride Golf Course was a challenging course and it had deep roughs and narrow fairways, the weather and windy conditions further made it difficult to score well.
"On day one, I played one-over on back nine and that made me third on the leader board behind two Englishmen. On the second day, I couldn't deliver the goods and ended with a double bogey and triple bogey," Bopanna said after his round.
"Perhaps, the tough conditions saw Englishmen also mishit quite a lot of their drives. I am happy that I could finish second in my maiden attempt."
