Royal colombo golf course

The Royal Colombo Golf Course: India’s golf legend Jeev Milkha Singh provided the inaugural season of the Indian Golf Premier League (IGPL) a dream finish as he beat a host of young and experienced stars to win the IGPL Invitational Sri Lanka, the final event of the season.

Jeev, who has not won a pro event since 2012, gave his young rivals a perfect lesson on the Royal Colombo Golf Course greens in the final event of the inaugural season.

After a modest second day, Jeev spent almost half an hour at the putting green. It may well have paid off as he putted superbly to add to his splendid iron play that saw him hit his approaches to inside 5-10 feet. At one stage, he had five birdies in a row and seven in a span of nine holes between the sixth and the 14th.
