Set against the pristine championship layout of Jaypee Greens, the NDTV Pro-Am has been designed to offer participants a world-class experience - from competitive play and curated pairings to course-side interactions with pros and premium hospitality. It is a tournament conceived as the first chapter of a long, ambitious story in Indian corporate golf. The Pro-Am has an exciting journey ahead - travelling from Delhi to Bengaluru, and from Mumbai to Kolkata, creating an exclusive, aspirational, year-round calendar for India's corporate and golfing communities.
Between this vision and the road ahead lies the true purpose of the NDTV Pro-Am: to build a platform that celebrates excellence while widening the circle. As the tournament travels across cities, engages new audiences, and brings more people onto fairways, NDTV aims to create a culture where golf is not just followed or admired - but genuinely experienced by a far broader community
