After winning many prestigious titles in her native India, Aditi's highly successful amateur career culminated in 2015 with a comfortable five-shot victory in the Ladies British Open Amateur Stroke Play championship at Moortown Golf Club, Leeds. Her transition to the professional game included winning the Ladies European Tour Q-School, the first Indian player to achieve this honour.

Not content with simply gaining entry to the Ladies European Tour, Aditi's rookie year included back-to-back Tour wins in November 2016. In the process she became the first Indian golfer to land a Ladies European Tour title and the first home country winner of the Women's Indian Open.

The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
