The HotelPlanner Tour has withdrawn its sanction from next week’s Indorama Ventures Open Golf Championship in Ahmedabad, India which was co-sanctioned with the Professional Golf Tour of India, due to the ongoing military action in the Middle East.
HotelPlanner Tour players and staff are facing travel disruption as many would be travelling to India via the Middle East. The tournament will continue to operate under the Professional Golf Tour of India.
The HotelPlanner Tour is due to be in India the following week for the DP World PGTI Open but whether they stage that tournament either remains uncertain.
The Hotelplanner Tour released a statement below:
Due to the ongoing military action in the Middle East, HotelPlanner Tour staff and players are currently facing significant travel disruption ahead of next week’s Indorama Ventures Open Golf Championship in Ahmedabad, India, with many scheduled to travel via the Middle East. As a result, the decision has been taken with the Professional Golf Tour of India to withdraw the HotelPlanner Tour sanction from this event. The tournament will continue to be staged but will now be sanctioned solely by the Professional Golf Tour of India.
This is an evolving situation that we will continue to monitor very closely, with assessments made on a tournament-by-tournament basis.
