Spain's in-form Chacarra wins DP World India Championship
Red-hot Spaniard Eugenio Chacarra won his fourth DP World Tour title on Sunday with a two-shot victory in the weather-hit tournament in New Delhi.
Chacarra, who won the Dutch Open and the 83 Open d'Italia in June and Indian Open last year, finished on 21-under at Delhi Golf Club.
Chacarra will move to the top of the Race to Dubai rankings, overtaking Patrick Reed, who finished eight-under.
The 26-year-old Chacarra carded a final-round two-under-par 70 and pumped his fist in the air to celebrate his third win on the European tour this season.
New Zealand's Daniel Hillier was second on 19-under and Chacarra's fellow Spaniard Angel Hidalgo and Poland's Adrian Meronk were tied third on 15-under.
England's Tommy Fleetwood, the defending champion, finished tied fifth at 13-under.
With the tournament playing catch-up, Chacarra completed his third round in the morning to extend his sole lead.
He kept up the charge in the final round with three birdies against one bogey.
Six-time major champion Rory McIlroy, who had been in the hunt after the weather-disrupted first two days, finished tied 42nd at four-under.
