Local favourite Rohan Sharan sealed the Patna Masters 2022, the 10th leg of the Indian Golf Union's (IGU) Eastern India Amateur Golf Feeder Tour, at Patna Golf Club. The tournament was held on August 20 and 21, with participation from more than 50 golfers across India.
Sharan shot 5 over par 147 in both rounds of golf, five shots less than Chittaranjan's Sahil Kumar Singh. Despite the fact that Patna Golf Club is Singh’s home turf and having won the amateur division of the same event last year, he failed to capitalise on it.
