Manu said, "I'm happy that I was able to perform the way I wanted to. It's great to have my sixth win of the season which is a record on the PGTI but I'm just looking to continue doing what I do well and not thinking too much about the records. I stuck to my plans through the week and converted a lot of chances, so it was a satisfying performance. My drives and my putting stood out this week.
"It was a memorable experience to play alongside two of Indian golf's biggest names Anirban and Gaganjeet. They've played in the most elite fields across the world. But today I didn't think too much about who I was playing with. Instead I only focused on controlling my own game and I did that well."
