Kapil Dev Tees off at HSBC Golf League Regional Round North India powered by Thriwe
NEW DELHI, Dec. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — The first regional round of the HSBC Golf League held at ITC Classic Golf and Country Club witnessed 90+ golfers, including amateurs and professionals, tee off together.
The presence of cricketing legend Mr. Kapil Dev, Yuvraj Singh Sandhu (India’s Number 1 Golfer), and Priya Puri (PPGA), with 22+ professional golfers at the event, contributed heavily to the phenomenal success of the first indigenous golf platform, The HSBC Golf League.
The Golf League app, which was launched on 24 September 2022, is the first-ever golf platform for amateurs to play golf with fellow business behemoths, network with like-minded individuals, and learn the pro tips of golf from professional golfers.
Brandon D’souza was the golf tournament host and had people knitted with his art of oratory. The guest of honour, Mr. Kapil Dev, addressed the audience and said, “In the next three years, Golf will become one of the biggest sports in the country after cricket & platforms like HSBC Golf League is instrumental in making this happen.” He further appreciated HSBC for conceptualizing this idea, rolling it out in the market via a digital platform in association with Thriwe, and wished good luck to the makers, conceptualizers and implementers of the HSBC Golf League to make this app one of the choicest names in golf in India and across the region.
Mr. Jaswinder Singh Sodhi – Head of Customer Proposition, Digital & Marketing at HSBC India, thanked Mr. Kapil Dev for his presence. He was thrilled that Mr. Kapil Dev shared his views about making this app the go-to destination for all amateur golfers in the country. He further addressed the audience and shared his perspective on golf in India and how it will be one of the most popular sports in India.
