Kapur's Great Comeback Story

India’s Shiv Kapur may not quite be the Roger Federer of golf but the 35-year-old certainly celebrated a great comeback story

At 2015 U.S. OpenAt the inaugural Yeangder Heritage in Chinese Taipei - an event which he initially did not enter - Kapur charged through the pack with a final round of eight-under-par 64 to lift his long-awaited second career title in Asia.

The relief and joy was there for all to see.

“This win means a lot to me. It has been a frustrating last couple of years so it is nice to be back where I belong. There are so many good talents on the Asian Tour and it is getting harder to win each year. To win the way I did is just very satisfying,” he said.

“It has been such a long wait but you tend to appreciate it more. You will have questions and doubts from yourself and other people but I answered those questions more to myself than anybody else with this win. After you haven’t won for so long, you might think that the best is behind you.”

Shiv Kapur, take a bow and enjoy your return into the exclusive Asian Tour’s winner’s club. It’s been far too long but truly and well deserved.
