Kavita Singh, president, Women\u2019s Golf Association of India, said, \u201cEach successive year just gets better! While our girls continue to shine overseas, several of them featuring in the Top 10 and even recording podium finishes, the news back home is equally encouraging. The domestic Tour continues to grow and flourish, with many more girls now attracted to the Sport. The new crop of girls is extremely talented and hungry for success. The improvement in their focus and technique is clearly visible and augurs well for their future as they get ready to compete on the international stage.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Alexandra Armas, CEO, Ladies European Tour, said, \"The Women\u2019s Indian Open has become a staple on the LET schedule and is an event our players continue to look forward to year on year.
