The tournament featured an array of exciting matchups, but in the end, Singh outplayed his rivals to claim the top spot. His victory secured him the first-place prize of $80,000 in cash and the coveted champion’s trophy. His impressive display of tactics and ball awareness proved to be the key to his success.
