December 13, 2021

A 15-year-old golfer from Bengaluru has been listed among the top 100 child prodigies who have been selected from 68 countries from across the world. Avani Prashanth a student of Greenwood High School has made it to the ‘Top 100 child prodigies’ and has been selected for the prestigious “Global Child Prodigy Award 2022” for excellence in golf.

The award will be presented at a ceremony in Dubai in February 2022. The award is given for those displaying exceptional talent, capabilities and hard work and is given under 48 different categories.

The Global Child Prodigy Awards has taken up a unique initiative to recognize, honor, and encourage talents who display unusual expertise in their respective domains. This award is the first platform of its kind with the objective of recognizing child prodigies in different categories such as arts, music, dance, writing, painting, singing, modeling, acting, entrepreneurship, social work, science and sports amongst others.

Avani started playing golf when she was around four years old and has also been a two-time winner on the Hero Women’s professional golf tour, the youngest in the last decade.

In the recent past, this champion has also represented India at the Women’s Amateur Asia Pacific Golf Championship in Abu Dhabi, a premier Golf Tournament for Amateurs organized by the R&A and the Asia Pacific Golf Council and finished in the Top 16. She has the best finish by an Indian on debut.

“I want to now represent India at the Asian Games in China next year and become the first Female Golfer from India to win a Gold Medal. I have drawn up a list of golf tournaments overseas that I want to play and win and thereby improve my World ranking to Top 50 by end of next year. I want to win a gold medal for India at the 2024 Paris Olympics and become the No.1 Golfer in the World in the coming years. Golf is a wonderful sport that inculcates patience, discipline, integrity and the ability to bounce back from adversity. I want to inspire girls in India and the world over to take up this wonderful sport.”
