Jeev Milkha Singh with son Harjai Milkha Singh during the Europe Tour (Special Arrangement)
Fifty-two-year-old golfer Jeev Milkha Singh has even caddied for his 14-year-old son, Harjai Milkha Singh, multiple times in Europe and elsewhere in the world. This week, however, will be different as the father-son duo will be competing in a tournament together as they tee off with their respective groups in the PGTI Chandigarh Open at Chandigarh Golf Club starting April 3. Harjai Milkha Singh has been given an amateur spot in the four-day championship and father Jeev Milkha Singh is excited about both of them.
“I have caddied for Harjai Milkha Singh in various international competitions. But this week will be special. I remember a young Harjai along with my parents Milkha Singh and Nirmal Milkha Singh watching me play at Chandigarh Golf Club. So to see him tee off in a tournament where I am competing too is a special feeling for the whole Milkha family. My parents will be cheering up from the heavens for both of us and let’s see who among us outshines (laughs),” said Jeev Milkha Singh while speaking with The Indian Express.
