Pro Golf Tour: Vani Kapoor, who grabbed the top honours in the fourth leg last month, will be looking to add to that as she tees up in the fifth leg of the Women’s Pro Golf Tour at the Classic Golf & Country Club. The field of 38 includes five amateurs and carries a purse of Rs 16 lakh.

The experienced Vani, who won a thriller in the fourth leg, will be challenged by other established stars like Sneha Singh, who has already won twice this season and leads the Order of Merit, Amandeep Drall, who is trying to find the form that once made her a contender on the Ladies European Tour, Gaurika Bishnoi and Ridhima Dilawari.

Sneha Singh and Ridhima Dilawari shot 66 and 67, respectively, in the final round of the previous event to finish in the top three and signalled that they are finding their form at the right time.
