Jaipur : Prakhar Asawa of Rambagh Golf Club, Jaipur, showcased his prowess at the newly-launched National Golf tournament, the Gurgaon Open 2024, held at the Classic Golf & Country Club in Nuh, Haryana recently. Asawa, along with other top Indian professionals such as Manu Gandas, Rashid Khan, Aman Raj, Karan Pratap Singh, Sachin Baisoya, and Udayan Mane, competed against a field that also featured prominent international names.
Amidst challenging wind conditions and tricky pin positions, Asawa displayed unwavering resilience, finishing tied for 6th place with a total score of 277 after carding a level par 72 on the final day. Prakhar started the round with 2 bogeys and later recovered, finishing level par with 3 birdies and 3 bogeys.
