INDIA’S golf legend Jeev Milkha Singh ended a 13-year title drought after securing the IGPL Invitational Sri Lanka with a perfect finish to the inaugural season of the IGPL. The 54-year-old, who has not won a pro event since 2012, gave his young rivals a perfect lesson, producing a closing six-under 65 to total 15-under to outwit Aryan Roopa Anand (68) by one shot.

 

“I had never played in Sri Lanka before. It is an emotional moment for me. Because this is where my parents fell in love and began their relationship,” said an emotional Jeev, wiping his tears away. “My mother played volleyball and my father was here for athletics. So, this is where their journey together began.
