The 21-year-old golfer finished a respectable 9th in the Mexico World Golf Championships after leading the scoreboard for the second and third rounds. For his superb show, he has also won an invitation to the Masters' tournament scheduled to take place later this year.

Kapur, who recently won the Yeangder Heritage after an eleven-year drought and further won the Panasonic Open and the Royals cup is confident of putting up a good show in the upcoming Indian Open tournament.
"I will play more attacking golf this year than last year because since it is a tough course, we tend to play more defensive. I think if I come out with an attack, I might make some bogeys but I will end up making few birdies as well. But if I am defensive and have a bunch of pars and a big number might hit you," said Kapur reported PTI
The tournament will also feature Darren Clarke, 2011 winner at the Indian Open and winner of two other WGC events. The tournament will also see the likes of the former world top 10 ranked player, Thomas Bjorn, who has won 21 career titles.
The other world-renowned players set to participate in the tournament are Emiliano Grillo of Argentina, Britain's Andrew Johnston, Thailand's Thongchai Jaidee and Siddikur Rahman from Bangladesh.
