New Delhi: The commercial appeal of Tiger Woods will be known this week. It is reckoned by experts that the golf’s world No1 will make a seven-figure dollar sum.
On his first visit to India, Woods will play in an exhibition match on Tuesday at the Delhi Golf and Country Club. Woods will appear alongside Shiv Kapur, one of India’s most high-profile players who is sponsored by the Hero Motor Group, the company behind Woods’s visit.
Woods will also inaugurate a set of apartments named after him. “Tiger’s visit to India is going to make a huge impact and there is a big buzz already not only in Delhi but the whole country,” said Kapur.
All the members and juniors at Delhi Golf Club will be watching with enormous interest, and while it will not be open to the media it’s all about promoting the game, Delhi Golf Club and golf.
At least, one day the world’s top golfer is going to steal all the attention away from the world of cricket in India.
