Pro Golf Tour: Vani Kapoor will attempt to win a hat-trick of titles as she tees up at her home course, the DLF Golf and Country Club, for the sixth leg of the Women’s Pro Golf Tour (WPGT) here on Tuesday. The highly successful domestic star, who won the fourth and fifth Legs of the Tour, is also chasing the Order of Merit leader, Sneha Singh, who has also won twice this season.
The sixth leg which features 40 players has some of the leading stars led by Vani and besides her, there is Sneha Singh, Amandeep Drall, Jasmine Shekar, Ridhima Dilawari, Gaurika Bishnoi, and Neha Tripathi.
