Pranavi Urs becomes first India woman to win IGPL Mumbai

Pranavi Urs got the better of overnight leader Karandeep Kochhar when it mattered most and created history by becoming the first Indian woman golfer to win a professional golf tournament while playing alongside men at the IGPL Tour.

Pranavi carded a stunning 8-under 60, which was the week’s best card, at the Par-68 Bombay Presidency Golf Club on the final day of the IGPL Invitational Mumbai.

Making her IGPL debut, Pranavi, who was trailing her boyfriend Kochhar by two shots overnight, played efficient and solid golf with eight birdies, the last of which appropriately came on the 18th to finish 14-under for the week as against Kochhar’s 64 which ended with his second eagle of the day. Kochhar totalled 12-under.

Kochhar was generous in his praise of Pranavi, “I had this feeling that she would win as she was playing so well. She outplayed us all and even early in the round I realized I would have to play out of my skin to get the better of her.”

On beating the boys, Pranavi laughed and added, “I can’t describe the feeling, but right now I feel like I’m still numb and I still haven’t soaked it in, that I’ve actually won. As for beating the boys, this is a great format and platform and it is great to be able to play with the boys and see where your game is at with the boys.
