Dodge Kemmer won his maiden Asian Development Tour title at the Gurugram Challenge at the Classic Golf & Country Club on Friday.

The world traveller that he is, Dodge Kemmer counts himself lucky to pursue the two things closest to his heart. Travelling is a source of joy but as a pro golfer the cheques should also keep coming in.

But an athlete’s calling lies in being seen in the winner’s circle. For Dodge, it was a wait that started since his last win on the Japan Challenge Tour and ended on Friday with the three-shot win at the Gurugram Challenge on the Asian Development Tour.

Dodge almost did not make it after nearly missing his tee-off on Thursday, but every incident has a learning and this one aided Dodge in staying calm on the course and pulling off what he has longed for.
