MUMBAI: Avani Prashanth, among India's most promising young golfers, sat down with her coach after the LPGA qualifying series in the USA, where things slid drastically despite her coming in feeling upbeat about her game. "My coach said your attitude as a whole changes when a big event comes along, and not in a productive way. I need you to change that," Avani said.
Change she did, and it showed in another high-stakes qualifying event a few months down the line. The 18-year-old from Bengaluru earned the Ladies European Tour (LET) card for the 2025 season with a tied-16 finish in the Final Qualifier at Lalla Aicha Q-School in Marrakesh, Morocco last month.
It was a significant tick on the checklist of India's highest-ranked amateur woman golfer in the last decade who turned professional in 2024. It also came as a "bit of a relief" for Avani after the disappointment at the LPGA qualifying and an under-par 2024 season following the highs of 2023.
