Pranavi Urs is full of confidence having begun the second half of the Hero Women’s Pro Golf Tour with a win last week. The Hero WPGT stays in the southern metro of Bengaluru for the second week and Pranavi would love nothing more than to take her tally of wins to four this season.

Jahanvi will not have the company of her sister Hitaashee, who is missing this week, too, on account of her school examinations. However, Gaurika Bishnoi is back having recovered from indisposition and Meher Atwal, too, is back in the field after missing the last event.

The amateurs to watch out for will include Vidhatri Urs, who was third overall last week behind Pranavi, and Asmitha Sathish. Rishika Muralidhar had a great opening round but slipped thereafter.

Smriti Bhargav, who recently secured her place in the Indian National Team for the World Amateur Team Championship (WATC) in France later this year, will also be in focus. Another amateur to watch out for would be Heena Kang, who was Tied-6th last week.

Neha, who had a decent result last week in fifth place, as well as Ridhima, Lakhmehar Pardesi and Seher, among others, will be hoping for a good result to reverse their fortunes this season.
