Mr. Amandeep Johl, CEO, PGTI, said, “We are thrilled to make PGTI’s next stop at the stunning Clover Greens Golf Course and Resort. With PGTI making its debut at this venue, the professionals can expect a whole new set of challenges. The numerous water bodies and the narrow fairways guarded by trees on either side will test the skills of India’s best golfers.

“This year, the management at Clover Greens has further enhanced the course by lengthening it to nearly 6,900 yards from the championship tees. Playing close to 7,000 yards, the layout will provide a true test of skill and strategy, ensuring that the professionals put up a great show for the members and spectators.

“The tournament promises to be a visual treat for golf enthusiasts from the region and from the major golfing hub of Bengaluru nearby.”

Mr. Austin Roach, CMD, Roach Lifescapes & Clover Greens Golf Course & Resort, said, “I am happy to welcome everyone to Clover Greens for the PGTI Golf Tournament. This is the first time our course is hosting a PGTI event, and it is an honour to have some of the best golfers in the country compete here.

“At Clover Greens, our focus has always been to give players and guests the best possible facilities and a place to enjoy the game. This tournament is a celebration of golf and an opportunity to encourage more people to take up the sport.

“I wish all the players the very best and look forward to a great week of golf at Clover Greens.”

Clover Greens Golfscapes is designed to provide an elevated golfing experience for seasoned professionals as well as young golfers. Phil Ryan of Pacific Coast Design, Australia, designed the 18-hole Championship Golf Course. With its stunning natural environs, half the course navigates a massive rock outcrop, astutely offering up obstacles, opportunities and visual treats in plenty. The panoramic landscape lined with Casuarina trees evokes a sense of an enchanting European countryside. The result is a course that is challenging yet rewarding.

The Pro-Am event played on Sunday, 17^th August, was won by the team led by professional Om Prakash Chouhan. The winning team had a nett score of 50.7 and consisted of amateurs Mr. Praveen Singhvi, Dr. Amit and Mr. Rajendra Prasad.
