From L-R – Indian golf legends – Jeev Milkha Singh, Jyoti Randhawa & Arjun Atwal

It’s a weekend to remember for Indian golf as Arjun Atwal, Jeev Milkha Singh and Jyoti Randhawa—three of the sport’s most celebrated names in India—all advanced to the final rounds of the ISPS Handa Senior Open at the iconic Sunningdale Golf Club in Berkshire, England.

Arjun Atwal, India’s only PGA Tour winner, led the trio with rounds of 67 and 72, placing him at 1-under and tied-36th heading into the weekend. Close behind is Jeev Milkha Singh, the four-time winner on both the European and Japan Tours. The 53-year-old carded 71-69 to sit at even-par, T-49th.

Rounding out the Indian contingent is Jyoti Randhawa, an eight-time Asian Tour champion, who earned his spot on the Legends Tour (formerly Senior European Tour) by winning Q-School in Türkiye earlier this year. Randhawa posted rounds of 70-71 to make the cut right on the number at 1-over.

Padraig Harrington is setting the pace atop the leaderboard. The three-time major champion on the regular tour and now a two-time senior major winner—fresh off his victory at the U.S. Senior Open—fired rounds of 67 and 65 to seize the 36-hole lead at 8-under par.

As the weekend unfolds, Indian golf fans have every reason to tune in—with legends still competing, and Harrington chasing yet another senior major title.
