Kolkata: After exactly a month and a gap of exactly two tournaments, Gurbani Singh and Aditi Ashok, the country\u2019s top two amateur lady golfers in that order, are ready to cross swords once again at the USHA Eastern India Ladies & Junior Girls Amateur Golf Championship 2013, which is set to get underway at Kolkata\u2019s Tollygunge Golf Club greens.<\/p>\n
Delhi-based Gurbani registered a victory at the USHA Chandigarh Open last month and has been without a win since. She finished outside the top three at the USHA Northern India Open in Gurgaon which followed and then skipped the two subsequent tournaments at the Delhi Golf Club as well as the one played at the same course last week. Bangalore based Aditi too has skipped the last two tournaments and has not won for a while and will surely be looking to make amends.<\/p>\n
The draw has seen acceptance from 46 amateur lady golfers in all. Millie Saroha who is fresh from her victory at the same course last week would be looking to do an encore. The fact that she lies third behind Gurbani and Aditi on the IGU Ladies Order of Merit list for the year and that just about 65 points separate the top three, should egg her on further. Recent success on the golf course always helps.\n<\/p>\n
Strong challenge is also expected from \u2018seasoned veterans\u2019 of the IGU Ladies Tour like Gauri Monga, Amandeep Drall, Riddhima Dilawari, Gursimar Badwal, Tvesa Malik and Seher Atwal. The event will be played in the stroke-play format over three days and 54 holes. The winner is likely to emerge on Thursday, November 14<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
