The Legends Tour is making its debut in India with the India Legends Championship, a historic event set to be held at the stunning Jaypee Greens Golf Course from August 28. This inaugural tournament, which marks a significant milestone for Indian golf, will feature a prize purse of USD 500,000 and will be hosted by one of India's golfing icons, Jeev Milkha Singh.

Jeev, who has been a trailblazer for Indian golf on the international stage, expressed his excitement about the event, saying, "It's going to be a big boost to Indian golf. It is very special for me, and I'm really excited that I'm going to be hosting and playing this event at Jaypee Greens." His words resonate with the growing enthusiasm for golf in India, a sport that has been gaining momentum in recent years.

The India Legends Championship will see participation from 10 Indian golfers, including Jyoti Randhawa, another prominent figure in Indian golf. The event is part of the Legends Tour, formerly known as the European Senior Tour, which is the official tour for players over 50.



The tour boasts a strong membership that includes former major winners, World Number Ones, and Ryder Cup players and captains. This provides a unique platform for Indian golfers to compete with some of the best in the world, showcasing their skills on a global stage.

The significance of this event extends beyond just the tournament itself. With HSBC India as the title sponsor, the focus is on creating a lasting impact on the sport in the country. Sandeep Batra, Head of Wealth and Personal Banking at HSBC India, highlighted the broader vision: "Our ambition is to leave a lasting legacy in the sport, fostering growth and development at all levels. Through this partnership, we aim to inspire future generations to embrace golf, while also ensuring a sustainable future for the game."

As Indian golf continues to grow, events like the India Legends Championship are crucial in providing a platform for the sport to flourish. With promising young talent emerging and a strong support system in place, the future of golf in India looks brighter than ever.
