Saptak Talwar to be the lone Indian on the DP World Tour in 2027

Saptak Talwar will be the lone Indian golfer on the DP World Tour in 2027, after a disappointing end to the season for the country's other professionals. Shubhankar Sharma and Yuvraj Singh Sandhu, who both held tour cards, finished 160th and 172nd in the Race to Dubai standings, well outside the top 50 who qualify for the season-ending championship in Dubai. The disappointment was compounded at the Final Stage of Qualifying School in Spain, where Sandhu, Karandeep Kochhar and Kshitij Naveed Kaul all failed to advance to the last two rounds.

Talwar secured his place by winning the DP World–PGTI Order of Merit, earning a Category 17 card for next season. No Indian will be in the field for this week's DP World Tour Championship at Jumeirah Golf Estates, where the season reaches its climax.
