Jeev Milkha Singh

Jeev Milkha Singh edges out Ernie Els and Padraig Harrington to win the Singapore Open. The son of "the flying Sikh", he scored 7-under-par to win about $790,000 in prize money in a field that included Phil Mickelson. Congrats Jeev! Other Indians who finished in the top 50 are Gaurav Ghei who finished 22 and Shiv Kapur 31.

Along with the cricket team which is doing well, there has been much more to cheer about in the Indian sporting world this year -- Bindra, Vijender, Sushil Kumar, Saina, Joshna, Jeev, Anand, Narang and others. Hopefully in the years to come, this will expand to a much larger number.
