PGTI set to launch its own league to take on rebel IGPL

Days after the launch of a rival Indian Golf Premier League (IGPL) Tour and league, the official Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI), which has downplayed the move, announced its scheduled for the rest of the season and a likely setting up of its own league.

The modalities for the league are being worked out. “It's not in response to IGPL. We have been thinking about it for a while,” PGTI CEO Amandeep Johl said on Saturday. The six-team IGPL is expected to debut next January and will feature 60 golfers in a home-and-away mixed-team format. It announced the signing of veterans Shiv Kapur, SSP Chawrasia, and Gaurav Ghei as three of the skippers with Asian Tour regular Gaganjeet Bhullar revealed as an icon player.
