Tommy Fleetwood Wins at the Indian DP World Championship

The golfer Tommy Fleetwood continues his excellent performance this season, leading the Indian DP World Championship after an impressive round of 64 strokes, eight under par. His performance puts him with a one-stroke lead going into the middle of the tournament. Fleetwood, who recently won the Tour Championship, obtaining his first title on the PGA Tour and the FedEx Cup championship, has demonstrated exceptional play. English, currently in the number 5 position in the world ranking, leads the prestigious tournament in India, thanks to eight error-free birdies in the second round, accumulating a total of 12 under par in the week. Shane Lowry and Brian Harman, both former Open champions, are tied for second place.

The Delhi Golf Club course, with its trees and narrow fairways, represents a unique challenge for all of us.
