This is fantastic news for Indian sports. A golf league can inspire so many young athletes. Hoping the second edition gets even more visibility and corporate support. The ambition to reach Ryder Cup level is bold and exciting!

Congratulations to the Regals! As someone from Jaipur, it feels great to have a team from Rajasthan win. But I have a respectful criticism - the league needs better marketing. I follow sports closely and barely saw any promotion for this. Hope edition 2 is louder!

Wonderful initiative. Golf has always seemed like an elite sport, but a league like this can make it more accessible and popular. More power to PGTI and the team owners for their vision. Jai Rajasthan! 🇮🇳

Solid start. Having legends like Kapil Dev and business families like the Agarwals (Haldiram's) involved gives it instant credibility. Now the key is sustaining interest and building a fanbase. Maybe get some Bollywood or cricket stars to own teams next time?

Impressive ambition to aim for Ryder Cup standards. The infrastructure and coaching will need a massive upgrade, but this league could be the catalyst. Hope they focus on developing young Indian talent alongside the spectacle.
