Atwal has won three times on the European Tour

Qualifier Arjun Atwal became the first Indian to win on the PGA Tour with a one-stroke victory at North Carolina's Wyndham Championship.

The 37-year-old from Calcutta parred the final hole for a round of 67 and a 20-under-par total as he avoided a play-off with nearest rival David Toms.

"It feels great," said Atwal, whose win owed much to a stunning nine-under 61 in his opening round in Greensboro.

"I was so nervous of that [last] putt and I'm glad it went in."

Atwal began his final 18 holes with a three-shot lead but Toms birdied three of his last four holes for a 64 that heaped pressure on the shock leader.

But Atwal, who had led or shared the lead after each of the first three rounds,, was not about to wilt.

Indeed, he even had the courage to blast his approach to the last in the hope of hitting the spectators' tent that was positioned behind the green in order to get a favourable drop shot.

His plan worked perfectly. The ball hit the base of the tent, Atwal was awarded a drop and he made no mistake with his up-and-down, holing a seven-footer to dash Toms's hopes of a play-off.

Americans John Mallinger (62), John Rollins (65), Justin Leonard (65) and Australian Michael Sim (62) were all tied for third on 18 under.
