Gaurika returns to battle Neha, Tvesa and Sneha in 11th Leg of Hero WPGT

Bengaluru: After a long-awaited win last week, Neha Tripathi will hope to continue her winning momentum when she leads the 39-players field at the 11th Leg of the Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour starting here on Wednesday.

The 31-year-old seasoned pro, who turned pro back in 2010, went through more than four and a half years without a win before beating back a strong challenge from a bunch of younger players, some of whom are still amateurs.

"I knew I was on the right track and I was playing well, but last week all pieces fell in place," said Neha.

"It is always nice to get the win and it brings a lot of satisfaction with it.' Tvesa Malik is another one looking for that satisfaction after a couple of tough seasons on the Ladies European Tour, where she only has a limited status this season.

Tvesa, who has been playing mostly on the European Tour for the past few seasons, last won on the Hero WPGT in 2021. And now, she is trying to play herself back into form through the Tour, where the 27-year-old started back in 2017.

Gaurika Bishnoi (in pic), who missed the last two events due to personal commitments, won her last start, which was the eighth leg and is back for the 11th Leg. Gaurika, who has been working on some aspects of her game, is hoping to get into the right frame by the time before the LET's Qualifying School comes around. (PTI)
