BT Golf Tees Off 27th Season, Driving Corporate & Professional Golf Across India

The Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI) and Business Today have officially launched the 27th season of BT Golf, a key corporate tournament aimed at significantly expanding golf's reach across India. Kicking off on October 31st at Kolkata's Tollygunge Club, this multi-city format will span eight major business hubs, with organizers keen to add even more locations in the future. The partnership reinforces a shared vision to bridge the world of business leadership with professional sports, moving golf beyond its traditional 'elite' tag to engage a much wider audience. This renewed collaboration arrives amidst a dynamic period for Indian golf, which has seen considerable investment and new initiatives. Just this year, the PGTI itself gained DP World as its title sponsor, leading to enhanced prize money and global playing pathways for Indian golfers. Recently, the 'Race to India Championship' was introduced to align the domestic tour with international calendars, and a new 'Player Support Programme' is helping top golfers pursue international careers. The goal is not just to offer a unique networking platform for 'India Inc', but also to inspire young talent and integrate Indian golf more deeply into the global circuit, as emphasized by cricketing legend and PGTI President Kapil Dev. As the BT Golf season progresses, expect a sharper focus on how these corporate-backed tournaments can truly democratize the sport. With the DP World PGTI already making strides in player development and international exposure, the success of this 27th edition will be closely watched. Its expansion plans and ability to connect business leaders with professional players will be crucial in shaping golf's future in India, hopefully paving the way for more young players to see golf as a viable career path, echoing the sentiments of 2026 Order of Merit winner Saptak Talwar.
