Indian golfers Shubhankar Sharma and Gaganjeet Bhullar have their task cut out in a field of multiple Major winners when the final leg of Middle East Swing begins here on Thursday.
There was a spring in Sharma's walk, as he twirled his new driver and used it first at the range and then Pro-Am. He was happy with his big club that arrived here at the Royal Greens Golf and Country Club in King Abdullah Economic City (KAEC), which is just over 100 km from Jeddah.
Also in the field is Bhullar, who dropped after seeming to be doing well last week in Dubai.
In 2019, when the event was held for the first time, Sharma missed the cut with rounds of 77-73, while Bhullar had rounds of 68-72-66-70 and finished T34.
Sharma talking of his new driver said, "I tried it and I liked it at the Pro-Am. Hopefully I will find more fairways and better results."
"The greens are great and the trees have grown. Last year the greens seemed a bit grainy as they were new, but now they are smooth."
