A MAKESHIFT GOLF COURSE!

JAMAL HOSSAIN MOLLAH, THE SECOND-MOST SUCCESSFUL GOLFER OF BANGLADESH, HAS BEEN REDUCED TO TRAINING AT THIS SANDY FIELD INSIDE THE BASHUNDHARA RESIDENTIAL AREA AS GOLF CLUBS IN THE CAPITAL HAVE REMAINED CLOSED SINCE MID-MARCH DUE TO THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC. WITH NO REALISTIC HOPE OF ANY EVENT IN THE COUNTRY THIS YEAR, JAMAL IS MAKING USE OF THIS MAKESHIFT COURSE TO PREPARE FOR TWO PGTI EVENTS IN CHANDIGARH EARLY NEXT MONTH WHERE THE TWO-TIME PGTI-WINNER IS LIKELY TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY MOHAMMAD SAYUM AND SIDDIKUR RAHMAN, THE COUNTRY’S BEST GOLFER.
