6th Leg - Hero Honda Women's Pro Golf Tour - Day 1

December 9th 2010: 6th leg of Hero Honda Women's Professional Golf Tour 2010-11 started today with Tanya Wadhwa paired with local girl Saaniya Sharma, followed by Sharmila Nicollet, veteran Vandana Agarwal and Preetinder Kaur another local. After first nine Sharmila was level par.

Massive ninth green tested the putting prowess of most golfers today. Saaniya three putted and Tanya after a perfect approach shot to within four ft two putted.

As compared to last two days there was a hint of breeze picking up speed which might throw some challenge later as the day progresses. Panchkula golf course looks in good shape with the greens playing true and firm. All the golfers were happy with the conditions on the course. With the sun shining strongly and drying the greens the putting challenge would be a different ball game. With rule +16 in force it would have some pressure on some of the golfers who have not been doing well so far. All in all the stage looks set for some exciting golf. Since the 18th hole a par 4 is 460 yards, the Tournament Director decided to make it a par 5 and thus making the total 73 for the course.

Quotes from Players:

Sharmila says - 13 fairways, 13 roughs and 32 putts. I had 6 birdies and 5 bogies. I could have shot a low round if was bit more careful. Good Driving.

Saaniya says - I had 12 greens and 37 putts. My driving was a bit off.

Tanya says - 5 greens, extremely poor hitting. Four 3 putts, greens are tricky, need to read them better. Driver needs to be more accurate.
