New Delhi, 16 October 2026 - The DP World Professional Golfers Association (PGTI) has announced financial assistance of ₹3 lakh for the overseas qualifying school expenses of its top 30 Indian golfers, along with a potential reward of ₹10 lakh for those who secure a tour card. This support is designed to alleviate the financial burden for Indian golfers aspiring to compete internationally, as traveling abroad for a tour card can be prohibitively expensive.
The initiative is part of a broader effort to create clear international pathways for Indian golfers. DP World PGTI President Kapil Dev expressed his commitment to providing maximum international opportunities for Indian players and praised the partnership with DP World. Amandeep Johl, CEO of DP World PGTI, emphasized that the organization's mission is centered around the players, and the support aims to reduce the distractions caused by financial constraints.
The DP World PGTI is also focusing on enhancing access to practice facilities, expanding golfing opportunities in smaller cities through the NexGen Series, and increasing tournament prize money and the number of events on the calendar.
