This was Aditi's third LET win in less than 12 months for Ashok, who this year has been focused on the LPGA Tour. This win comes a week ahead of the Hero Indian Open, where she is the defending champion. India's Vani Kapoor (70) finished in a tie for 57th. Aditi, who won the Hero Indian Open and Qatar Ladies Open last year, survived a late scare when she double bogeyed the par-3 17th. But she held her nerve to par the 18th hole to win by one shot over Georgia Hall.
