A galaxy of Asian Tour stars led by a strong homegrown contingent, will headline the second edition of The DGC Open presented by Mastercard. The event will be held at the venerable Delhi Golf Club from March 16-19, 2023.
The tournament, which in its very inaugural year was voted as the third best event on the 20-event schedule of the Asian Tour in the ‘Players Tournament of the Year’, will also see a massive enhancement of the prize purse, which goes up USD 500,000 to USD 750,000, a 50% increase in the prize money.
The event last year was won by Thailand’s Nitithorn Thippong, who had dashed Indian hopes as he pipped Ajeetesh Sandhu to the post by edging him out in a playoff after a thrilling finish. Since then, he has added a win from the International Series Singapore and finished fourth on the year-end Asian Tour Order of Merit. Nitithorn is all set to return this year as well as he looks to defend his title.
The field will have 132 players and players from around 25 countries are expected for the week.
