Great to see women's golf getting proper coverage! The prize money of ₹15 lakhs is decent but hope it increases as the sport grows in popularity. Mannat Brar as an amateur contender is exciting to watch!

Impressive field with five winners from this season! Sad to hear about Heena Kang's withdrawal due to back strain - injuries are always tough for athletes. Hope she recovers soon.

Clover Greens hosting both men's and women's events is great for Tamil Nadu sports! More tournaments should happen across different states to develop golf talent nationwide 🏌️‍♀️

The depth of talent in Indian women's golf is really impressive! From experienced pros like Sneha and Amandeep to young amateurs - this is how sports ecosystems should develop. Well done WPGT!

While it's good coverage, I wish there was more live streaming of these events. Would love to watch our golfers in action rather than just reading about results. Hope broadcasters pick this up!
