Introduction Hello, dear readers! Shiksha Jain here, bringing you my fourth blog post, where I delve into the ups and downs of my golfing journey. Today, I want to share the challenges I've faced on the golf course and how perseverance has been my strongest ally. Chapter 1: Early Days and Initial Struggles My golfing journey began at the tender age of seven. The golf course, with its vast expanse of green, always fascinated me.

Journey to Second Place: My Experience at the IGU Eastern India Ladies and Junior Girls Championship

Hey there, fellow golf enthusiasts and friends! I'm Shiksha Jain, and I wanted to share my recent experience from the prestigious IGU Eastern India Ladies and Junior Girls Championship that took place at the famous Tollygunge Golf Club in Kolkata. If someone had told the younger version of me, who first swung a club at Jaipur's Rambagh Golf Course just five years ago, that I'd be standing here with a medal from such a respected national tournament, I might've chuckled in disbelief. But here we are. Over the course of the four-day tournament, I played alongside and against some incredibly talented individuals. More than 100 players from different parts of our vast nation participated, each one with the hope and determination of emerging as a winner. And in the midst of such intense competition, I managed to secure the second position with a score of 238. This, for me, isn't just a score, but a testimony to the hours, sweat, and dedication I've poured into the gam...
