The heat at the West Lake International Golf Course on Sunday morning was mild and nowhere even close to causing a meltdown like the one India’s Aditi Ashok suffered in the women’s individual event. 

Yubol clinches gold

After a brilliant initial three rounds just 24 hours earlier with an inspirational 11-under 61 and a seven-shot lead in the forefront of the leaderboard, Aditi, 25, struggled in the final round and slipped to second spot, carding 17-under 271 (67-66-61-77), as Thailand’s Arpichaya Yubol, 19-under 269 (67-65-69-68), snatched the gold right under her nose. Korea’s Hyunjo Yoo took bronze with 16-under 272 (68-73-66-65).
