(Ep 199) Avani Prashanth

In the first recorded episode of Chasing Pars Golf Podcast it was great to be joined by the talented Indian star Avani Prashanth fresh off a full rookie season on Ladies European Tour where she would finish 36th on LET Order of Merit standings including 2 5th placed finishes at Hulencourt Open where she would be the leader and at her home event at Hero Indian Women's Open at DLF and would also finish the season strong 11th at Andalucia Open de Espana. Avani is from Bangalore in India and would start playing the game at 3 years of age and would win her first event on IGU Tour at 14 years old in 2021 as an amateur. Avani would have some great experiences as a junior and amateur playing in prestigious events such as Patsy Hankins Trophy for Team Asia, 2023 Asian Games in China with India & one of the major highlights being the individual winner of 2023 Queen Sirikit Cup and helping India finish 2nd in the team aspect. Avani would also become the first Indian amateur player to at Augusta National Women's Amateur Championship & the first Indian player to qualify for US Womens Amateur Open. In 2023 on LET Access Series would see Avani Prashanth win Ahlsell Trophy defeating Matilda Björkman & Isabell Ekström by a shot to further enhance her status as a really promising amateur to be feared. Known for her driving distance and accuracy as well as her fearless approach on the golf course it's clear to see how talented Avani is even at 19 years of age! She also is a big advocate for inspiring other young golfers to take up the game! Thanks Avani for a good chat and wish you well for the start of this season and beyond!
