Time for some golf

The 34th Petroleum Sports Promotion Board (PSPB) Inter-Unit Golf Championship was inaugurated recently.

The four-day golfing extravaganza is one of the most important tournaments on the amateur calendar. Top ranked amateur players such as Udayan Mane, Manu Gandas, Saquib Ahmed, Trishul Chinnappa, Samarth Dwivedi, Simarjeet Singh, Ankur Chadha and Manav Das were seen in action during the tournament. The tournament also witnessed India’s No 1 lady golfer Gurbani Singh and Viraj Madappa and Piyush Sangwan playing for the Championship.

Some of the prominent players from GAIL who would be vying for the Championship are India’s No 2 lady golfer and reigning Sri Lanka Open Champion Gauri Monga, reigning National Amateur Champion Pratap Atwal and local golfer Jaibir Singh. The tournament began with two-day practice rounds followed by the two-day main event to be played on a stroke play format.

Speaking on the occasion, R D Goyal said, ‘GAIL has been taking a number of initiatives to promote sports within the organisation and at the same time, supporting and promoting sports and players outside the organisation as well. Participating in PSPB tournaments is one such important platform.’
