Shiv Kapur will seek a first professional victory at his home course, the Delhi Golf Club when he tees up in the SAIL-SBI Open. Kapur learned the game at the venerable Delhi course when he was a young boy before going on to become one of the country’s leading golfers where he has won once on the Asian Tour. The 31-year-old is presently in fine form, winning twice at home over the past three months but it is a victory at the US$300,000 SAIL-SBI Open that he is after this week. “When I was a boy, we had a car sticker that said “DGC – my second home” but it really is my first home,” said Kapur, whose lone Asian Tour title came in 2005. “I remember the days when I was eight or 10 years old and trying to get through the crowds to get a peek at the players. Now, I’m one of them. I’ve never won as a pro on this golf course and I hope to win here.”
