51-year-old, four-time winner on the Japan Golf Tour & European Tour, Jeev Milkha Singh has been extended an invite to the upcoming 83rd Senior PGA Championship, a major event on the seniors tour scheduled for May 25-28 at Fields Ranch East in Texas.
I’ve been granted a special invitation to the 83rd @seniorpgachamp, which will be played May 25-28 at Fields Ranch East in Texas.
Can’t wait to get back to Texas, where I played all my college golf for @ACUedu.
Thank you @PGA. This really is a huge honour.#RolexFamily @ROLEX pic.twitter.com/XMYpc10jxd

Interestingly, Jeev has a prior connection with Texas, that’s where he played college golf for Abilene Christian University.
Earlier in March, Jeev shot 71, 67 and 72 (6-under 210) to win the Japan PGA Senior Qualifying School at the Par-72 Ibusuki Golf Club. Jeev had attempted the Champions Tour qualifiers this winter in USA but missed out earning full playing rights at the Final stage.
With Arjun Atwal also having debuted on the Champions Tour a couple of weeks ago, we hope to see these two stalwarts of Indian golf competing and winning there soon !
