The Indian Golf Union (IGU) has received the backing of the Union Sports Ministry to host the first Indian Golf Premier League in January.
A IGU delegation met the Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya and the Union Minister of Tourism and Culture, Gajendra Singh Shekhawat, for a fruitful discussion to promote golf at the grassroots level apart from hosting the league.
“Through IGPL we will scout and nurture golf talent,” said the IGU Director, Bibhuti Bhushan.
The IGU aspires to make golf more accessible, especially for thousands of school and college students, over the next three years.
