Shubhankar Sharma is excited on the eve of the US Open Golf Championship. The cause is not just the prospect of playing and a strong commitment to excel at the Shinnecock Hills course in New York, but a dinner date with a golf legend – Ernie Els.
India’s new golfing sensation Shubhankar Sharma was all fired up after attending a dinner hosted by Ernie Els, the captain for the 2019 Presidents Cup, and looked desperate to produce a fine show at the US Open, which tees off at the Shinnecock Hills in New York today (Thursday), reports PTI.
“I was quite excited to attend the dinner hosted by Ernie Els. He has always been someone I have looked up and he was one of the stars who kindled my interest in golf way back in 2008 (in Delhi),” Shubhankar said.
“There would be nothing I would love more than to play on the team he leads at the Presidents Cup next year,” added the Indian as he got ready for one final look at the course before the first round a day later.
