“One of world’s top golf course architects”: PGTI CEO Amandeep Johl
New Delhi [India], July 30 (ANI): The PGTI J&K Open 2026 is set to be held from August 2 to 7 at the Royal Springs Golf Course in Jammu and Kashmir, with golfers and organisers expressing excitement over the tournament and the opportunity to promote the region’s tourism.
CEO of the Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI) Amandeep Johl praised the golf course, saying it was designed by internationally renowned architect Robert Trent Jones Jr.
“I think Robert Trent Jones Jr. is one of the world’s top golf course architects. Royal Springs Golf Course in Jammu and Kashmir was designed by him, and he’s an internationally renowned architect. I think all the professionals on the DP World PGT are looking forward to playing there," Johl told ANI.
Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Director of Tourism Rashid Raina said the tourism department was excited and proud to host the Open Championship and had made arrangements for the event.
“We are very excited, and we are very proud to host this Open Championship that’s going to be held from 2nd of August till 7th of August. Government of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly the tourism department, we have made all sorts of arrangements whatever was asked by DP World and PGTI because they are the main organisers of the event," Raina told ANI.
Indian golfer Amardeep Malik, who has played at the course before, highlighted its distinctive setting and the variety of fruits available around the fairways.
“I’ve been there before, and I’m now one of the senior players on tour. So I’m probably one of the players who’s telling Saptak to enjoy and play the golf course purely because it’s one of the unique golf courses where you can just walk on the fairways and pluck apples from the side of the fairways and eat. There are multiple kinds of fruits on the golf course. And it’s a sight that is not very common, especially as a golfer, because there are not many golf courses in the world that provide that. So that’s something we’re looking forward to," Malik told ANI.
For Indian golfer Saptak Talwar, the tournament will also mark his first visit to Kashmir. He said he was excited to experience the region’s golf, cuisine and culture.
“I’m very excited. I’ve heard great things from my fellow players who have been there in the previous editions. My first time in Kashmir, I’m excited to play golf, and I’m more of a foodie. So I’m excited to try the cuisine and the culture over there as well," Talwar told ANI. (ANI)

India Creates History With 1-2 Finish in Commonwealth Games Sprint as Dilip Gavit Wins Gold and Mohammed Basil Takes Silver
India scripted history in para athletics at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The country secured a historic one-two finish in the men’s 100m T47 final. Dilip Mahadu Gavit won the gold medal. Mohammed Basil Morssinganakath claimed the silver medal.
Gavit clocked a Games record and season-best time of 10.71 seconds to take the top spot. Basil produced his season-best 10.83 seconds to finish second in a closely-fought race. England’s Kevin Santos completed the podium with 10.85 seconds to win bronze. The final was held on a rain-soaked track, making conditions difficult for the sprinters.
The gold was India’s third at the Glasgow Commonwealth Games. The other golds came from Mirabai Chanu in the women’s 48kg weightlifting event and Sharmila Dhankar in the women’s shot put F57 para athletics category. The two medals lifted India to eighth spot in the standings with three gold, nine silver and three bronze.
India’s para discus throwers Sagar Thayat and Devender Kumar missed out on medals. They finished sixth and seventh respectively in the men’s F42-44/F61-64 final. Sagar produced an Asian record and his season’s best throw of 51.79m. Devender registered a season’s best effort of 48.20m.
After his historic win, Gavit admitted that the start was not ideal but he grew stronger through the race. He said the start was a bit slow but then he gradually picked up pace and it felt great to win. He also said the weather was not good and he had difficulty getting his timing right. The body becomes slow and it is difficult to warm up in such conditions.
Despite the success, Gavit is not ready to relax. He is already looking ahead to the LA28 Paralympics. He said he is not thinking about doing a job now and his target is to win medals. He is sure he will do better at the upcoming Para Asian Games in September-October in Japan and then the Paralympics.
