New Delhi, May 20 The US Kids Golf Tour India on Saturday announced that it is set to expand to different parts of India and will also have its first overseas series next month in Singapore.While the series of six events in Singapore begins next month on June 13, the Indian expansion will see six events on the local Tour in the North Zone and then six each in the West and South Zones."The series of events will soon expand to other Asian countries. We are also expanding our outreach in the South and West Zones and by 2024 we will add East Zone. With 24 local events and regional finals in each zone and an Indian Championships, it will become the most exhaustive series offering a pathway to US Kids European and World Championships," said Rajesh Srivastava, President of US Kids Golf India, who is also President of US Kids Golf Asia, in a media release."An Asian Championships is also on the anvil and events will also offer American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) stars, which will help youngsters play more events in the US and also gain an advantage in getting to American colleges for golf," he added.In March, 2023, the US Kids Golf Foundation, US, the primary organisers of almost 1,500 US Kids Golf events in almost 50 countries, appointed Srivastava, as President of the US Kids Golf Asia also.Under this arrangement, Dan Van Horn, President, Founder of US Kids Golf LLC and Foundation, has authorised USKG India to conduct various golfing activities.Horn has written to US Kids Golf India, saying, "Rajesh Srivastava, President, US Kids Golf India, is authorised and responsible for conducting and finalising partnerships with various golf-oriented entities throughout Asia for the US Kids Golf Foundation.""We want to give our young and talented golfers a chance to play at the best courses.
