She then went over to Europe for a few events, again on the LET, before coming to Singapore for the first-ever Chinese LPGA event outside China.It has been a season of great learning for Pranavi. She said, "I am looking forward to the Singapore Ladies Masters. It is humid but I have played in such weather before. I had a practice round on Tuesday but then just practised today on the range and greens."It will be a nice experience for Pranavi, who later this year, will be going to China for the Asian Games.

So, we are promoting golf for all sections. Countries like China, India, Korea, Thailand and others have so much talent and many already shown it. Now we want to give a chance to others."With China LPGA back to 18 events this season after a drop due to the pandemic, it has opened a new avenue for professional players seeking World Ranking Points.
