DP World Tour rising stars Rasmus Højgaard and Yannik Paul will tee it up at DLF Golf & Country Club when the Hero Indian Open returns to Delhi at the end of March.
Denmark’s Højgaard will be making his debut at the prestigious event, played from March 28-31, while Paul, from Germany, is aiming to go one better than his runner-up finish to compatriot Marcel Siem last year.
Højgaard, who turned 23 earlier this week, will arrive in India in good form after a strong start to the 2024 Race to Dubai. He enjoyed top ten finishes in three successive starts in Ras Al Khaimah, Bahrain and Qatar, as well as T11 results at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic and Dubai Invitational.
Paul, who finished runner-up in India on his tournament debut last year, came within a whisker of earning a second DP World Tour title as he finished one stroke behind Siem, despite a bogey-free final round.
He has also enjoyed a strong start to the season, with a T8 result at the Dubai Invitational and T4 finish at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship.
Also teeing it up in the popular tournament are three-time DP World Tour winner and Ryder Cup Vice Captain Nicolas Colsaerts, 2015 Hero Indian Open winner Anirban Lahiri and 2024 Challenger PGA Tour of Australasia Order of Merit winner Kazuma Kobori.
