"I'm confident of a good show here this week. The rigours of playing on the European Tour have helped me become a more confident player in Asia. I feel a win is not far away now," Chowrasia said on the eve of the Panasonic Open India 2014 here.
"I have been playing well and am hitting the ball confidently. It is just a question of things coming together and it could happen anytime," he added.
Giving Chowrasia a run for his money will be Siddikur Rahman of Bangladesh, who returns to competitive golf at the Panasonic Open India after being side-lined by an injury which hospitalised him for 15 days, besides the defending champion, Wade Ormsby, who has had a good season in Europe but came back to defend his first title.
Others in the fray will include S Chikkarangappa, winner of the Take Solutions ADT event last week, Chiragh Kumar, a former Indian Open runner-up at this course, Mardan Mamat, winner of the Indian Open at DGC exactly 10 years ago, and Rahil Gangjee.
Recalling some fond memories of the Delhi Golf Club, where he won his first joint-sanctioned event six years ago in 2008, Chowrasia said, "The DGC is definitely one of my favourite courses. I have some great memories of this course as it brings the best out of me. I like this course. It suits my game and I enjoy the atmosphere here.
