New Delhi, Sep 9 A new PGA Tour season gets underway with the Safeway Open on Thursday and for some of Asia's flagbearers competing on the world's leading professional circuit, it is an opportunity for a fresh start.India's Anirban Lahiri and Thailand's Kiradech Aphibarnrat are amongst a strong Asian contingent gathered at Silverado Resort and Spa North in Napa, California this week where the 2020-21 season-opening event presents a chance for atonement for the duo.Lahiri spent most of golf's shutdown in India where he took the opportunity to rebuild his game from scratch with coach Vijay Divecha. The Indian featured in 13 starts last season, making five cuts. His last top-10 on the PGA Tour was nearly two years ago when he finished tied for 10th at the 2018 Mayakoba Golf Classic and Lahiri will be eager to regain the kind of form that saw him play in the Presidents Cup in 2015 and 2017."I'm feeling excited to start the new season here at the Safeway. Over the last few months, I've put in the hard work with my coach and I feel like I'm making really good progress and I'm eager to put my game to the test now," said Lahiri."The important thing will be for me to play freely and to enjoy myself when I'm out competing again. It's been a strange year with the pandemic but I think the Tour has done a great job to get us out playing again in a safe manner."We've got a great schedule ahead for 2020-21 which I'm looking forward to playing my best golf again," he added.For Kiradech, the only Thai on the PGA TOUR, last season was almost a complete write-off as he featured in only seven tournaments and missed five cuts. No doubt, the three-month enforced shutdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic threw a huge spanner in the works for the 31-year-old Thai star as he stayed primarily at his home in Bangkok to recover from a knee injury and prepare for the new season."I'm looking forward to starting the new season on a good note," said Kiradech on Wednesday. "Missing out on the FedExCup Playoffs wasn't fun but I just didn't play well enough last season to qualify. Now that I'm rested, I'm ready to get going again and hopefully play some good golf which I know I'm very capable of."Other As stars in the field this week include Korean trio K.J. Choi, Si Woo Kim and K.H. Lee, Chinese Taipei's C.T. Pan and Xinjun Zhang, who enjoyed a small slice of history by becoming the first Chinese mainland golfer to qualify for the FedExCup Playoffs last month.( With inputs from IANS )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
