. @prashantruia on the Shri Shashi Ruia Memorial Golf Championship and the legacy it honours.

[Prashant Ruia @prashantruia]

Papa had a deep love for golf and valued the friendships and connections the game fostered.

It is a privilege for us to honour his memory by launching the Shri Shashi Ruia Memorial Golf Championship.

Today, in the presence of my friend and cricket legend Kapil Dev, we announced this championship, which reflects our shared passion for sport and our commitment to supporting the growth of professional golf in India.

I am grateful to @pgtofindia for partnering with @EssarFoundation to bring this championship to life.

I hope it provides a strong platform for Indian golfers to showcase their talent and inspires more people to take up the game.

VIDEO | Mumbai: DP World Professional Golf Tour of India and Essar Foundation on Friday announced the launch of the Shri Shashi Ruia Memorial Golf Championship, a new annual tournament on India’s professional golf calendar. PGTI President Kapil Dev says, "I think this is just the beginning. If you look at the 1950s, 1960s and 1980s, golf was very popular, and it was a difficult journey for cricketers as well. I think this is a similar journey. It just needs time, and tournaments like this will give the sport a kick-start. I hope golf will do much better in the coming years. When new technology comes in, you keep changing your equipment, but I think it is a myth that golf is expensive. You need a ball to play golf, just as you need one for cricket. Shuttlecocks are expensive, too. Every sport has its requirements, but if you want to develop a sport, it can happen."
