Firstgolf centre to open in Bangalore

Golf training programme Firstgolf, created by British golf architect Howard Swan, is getting ready to open its first training centre in India.
The centre, in the Karnataka state capital of Bangalore, will include a three hole golf course, chipping and bunker practice area and putting green, plus new training modules to allow students to take part in the construction and irrigation, as well as establishment and maintenance of the facility.
