By A Staff Reporter, Kathmandu, Oct. 15: Subash Tamang will mark a historic milestone for Nepali sport on Thursday when he becomes the first golfer from the country to compete on the DP World Tour at the DP World India Championship.

His appearance makes Nepal the 120th nation represented on golf’s Global Tour since its inception in 1972, following the debut of players from Rwanda, Bulgaria, and the Dominican Republic earlier this season.

Tamang’s journey began at the Royal Nepal Golf Club in Kathmandu, one of only seven courses in the country, where he was introduced to the game as a young spotter.

“I was introduced to golf by my cousin’s son, who was a spotter at the Royal Nepal Golf Club,” Tamang said to DP World Tour.

“Some members then brought me on as a spotter, and eventually I picked up a club. I started playing when I was 11 years old, and now I am 24. Having played all seven courses in Nepal, Royal Nepal remains my favourite.”

Tamang first rose to prominence as the first Nepali golfer to enter the top 100 of the World Amateur Golf Ranking.
