    INDIA'S Anirban Lahiri scored an "ace" with his joint second place finish in the legendary Jack Nicklaus's Memorial Tournament in Ohio last Sunday.

    He achieved the feat with his bogey-free seven-under 65 final round that raised the roof on Asian golf, quite similar to what the likes of Isao Aoki, KJ Choi, Jeev Milkha Singh and Hideki Matsuyama had done over the years.

    The 29-year-old Lahiri is no newcomer to the Asian Tour, having joined it in 2008 after turning professional a year earlier.
