Semi Finals : The semi-finals were played on April 28-29 , 2018 whereby the two favourites , the defending champions Epic Warriors and Roaring Tigers emerged as winners , revealing their gravitas for the league . With the JGL format being revamped , the competitors were to play the Grand Finale on two consecutive weekends at both Beldih and Golmuri golf courses on May 6 and 13 , 2018 . Setting the right tone and rhythm to the enthralling finale were huge hoardings and banners in and around the busy streets of Bistupur , gearing the golfers for the most exciting “ Clash of the Titans ”. Colourful flags that gelled with the participating teams took prominent spaces at the two courses . Some fancy posters and reminder mails to watch out for the madness to unfold , added to the rising excitement amongst the competing players and supporters .
JGL - II Final Round Epic Warriors Beat Roaring Tigers In A Sudden Death Play-Off Epic Warriors true to the “ Do or Die ” spirit , fought tooth and nail till what turned out to be a bitter end for Roaring Tigers . After 36 holes , with four matches in favour of each of them , it finally boiled down to a 4-foot putt on the first hole of the “ Sudden Death ” Play-off . To make that historic putt was none other than Mr Pawan Marwa . In the Play-off Roaring Tigers assigned the task to their best two players of the day – Navtez Singh and Aditya Panchamiya against Pawan Marwa and Akshay Kumar of the Epic Warriors . Pawan was the only one to hit the green . Having left himself 4 feet below the hole after his 1st putt he slotted the next one confidently to make the only par on that hole and give his team the win for the second time in a row , which may remain only a dream for the others . Roaring Tigers played solid golf in each of their outings , were a formidable side and one of the tournament ’ s favourites . Great teamwork and fair play was their hallmark .
As for the defending champions Epic Warriors had created history in ways more than one . The team ’ s captain and outstanding player , Karna Parikh ’ s absence , did not bring down its enthusiasm or team-spirit . Rather , it displayed an indomitable spirit with Pawan Marwah taking charge and leading
