“My transfer to Gurugram was timely as the facilities for golf in the city are world-class, and I was able to practice whenever I had the time. I aim to compete in future World Police and Fire Games as well,” Singh said.

Singh is one of two persons from Gurugram to bag a medal in this year’s games.
