Description

The final round of the SECL Chhattisgarh Open at Fairway Golf & Lake Resort marks the conclusion of the PGTI’s high-scoring season opener. The primary challenge for the leaders is maintaining focus on a par-69 layout that has yielded historic scores throughout the week. The objective for the contenders is to navigate the technical back nine, where the Jhanjh Lake water hazards and tucked pin positions demand absolute precision. With a significantly increased winner's purse from the INR 1.5 Crore total pool, the pressure is at an all-time high for those looking to start their 2026 Order of Merit campaign with a victory.

Strategically, the final 18 holes are a test of aggressive scoring versus late-round nerves. The goal for the frontrunners is to survive the early holes before attacking the reachable par-5s, which have been the key to low rounds all week. The tactical focus for the chasing pack is to apply early pressure through the turn, forcing the leaders into difficult decisions on the risk-reward finishing stretch. With world-class facilities and a growing sports culture in Naya Raipur as the backdrop, the ultimate goal for the field is to deliver a clinical performance and secure a prestigious title in the heart of Chhattisgarh.

Result Description

In a historic finish to the 2026 PGTI season opener, American Jhared Hack produced a stunning final-round performance to claim the SECL Chhattisgarh Open title. Hack’s objective of total aggression was perfectly executed as he fired a sensational 10-under-par 59, the first of its kind in the tournament's history, to finish at 31-under-par 245. Entering the day in a share of the lead, Hack effectively ended the contest by the turn, playing flawless golf to secure a comfortable five-shot victory on his DP World PGTI debut.

Overnight co-leader Akshay Sharma and a surging Honey Baisoya were left to battle for the runner-up spots. Baisoya carded a strong final-round 64 to finish in solo second at 26-under-par, while Sharma, despite his record-breaking start to the week, had to settle for a tie for third after the relentless pace set by Hack became insurmountable. The victory marks a dream start for the Qualifying School graduate, who pocketed the winner's check of INR 22,50,000 and established himself as a major force to watch for the remainder of the 2026 season.
