IGPL Mauritius: Teen Star Veer, Consistent Baisoya Share Lead; Amandeep, Ridhima, Milind Soni Tied Third With 69
AM Green IGPL Invitational: Teen sensation Veer Ganapathy, who turned 18 just over two weeks ago on March 25, nailed two birdies in the last three holes to card 5-under 67 and rise to the very top of the leaderboard in the first round of the AM Green IGPL Invitational 2026, Mauritius hosted by Leander Paes.
Just as the day neared the finish, Sachin Baisoya, who was consistent season throughout 2025 with multiple Top-3 finishes but no wins, made his intent clear as he produced a brilliant finish after a rather sedate start. He closed with three birdies in a bogey-free round of 67 to join Ganapathy in a shared lead. Sachin also helped his team, Phoenix Hyderabad, go ahead in the team competition.
Lying in tied third place were Amandeep Drall (69), Milind Soni (69), and Ridhima Dilawari (69). Amandeep Drall, a former runner-up at the Hero Women’s Indian Open on the Ladies European Tour, and Ridhima are trying to emulate Pranavi Urs, who last year became the first woman to win an AM Green IGPL event. Pranavi won the Mumbai event last year.
