The next two weeks went by in a frenzy as one event after another got postponed and when the Indian Open went that way as well, reality dawned on us. The Olympics being postponed (to 2021) is a relief, but it will be a while before we can get on to the golf course and compete. Till the Delhi Golf Club was open, there was scope to play the course, but now it is about hitting balls from various distances at the farm. After a go-karting accident in 2009, the German was out for six months and was allowed only to putt by doctors. Apart from a handful of players who have global sponsors, almost all golfers will go in the red if they don’t get to compete in the next few months.
