first at the Shubhkamna Champions, and then at the Kensville Challenge � felt great, especially after not winning for a long time," Kapur said. "Now I would love to follow in SSP's footsteps and win a European Tour event at home. Adding the Avantha Masters to the Kensville Challenge and doing European double in India would be absolutely great," he added. The 31-year-old Indian, who has won once on the Asian Tour during his rookie year in 2005, is excited to get his solid early season form off to a flying start. "I ended the 2012 season pretty well and then began 2013 on a winning note, so now I'm looking forward to playing a European Tour event at home. The Avantha Masters is without doubt the crown jewel among all golf tournaments in India. This time we will be moving to a new course at Jaypee Greens, so that should really add to the excitement," said Kapur. The par-72 course at Jaypee Greens GC takes over the staging of the Avantha Masters from DLF Golf and Country Club, which hosted the tournament for three years from 2010. Designed by Greg Norman, Jaypee Greens GC features 14 water hazards and 88 bunkers and, at 7,347 yards, is India's longest course.
