Randhawa to make 300th appearance on Asian Tour

Indian golfer Jyoti Randhawa will make his 300th appearance on the Asian Tour when he tees off at the USD 400,000 Panasonic Open India here on Thursday.

Randhawa who turned professional in 1994 has since gone on to win eight titles on the Asian Tour including five at home.

"It doesn't seem that long. I remember my first tournament and 300 feels a long time. I'm just feeling great and having played so many events, it's surprising to me also. I didn't realize it," Randhawa said on the eve of the tournament.

The 47-year-old said winning the Indian Opens was one of the highlights of his career, that has spanned over a decade.

"The highlights? Winning the Indian Opens was good, because you know, you're a local boy and you are able to win in your own country. I won three of them actually."
"The best years on the Asian Tour was when I won the Order of Merit in 2002, and also in 2000. I won two events, I won both the Singapore Open and the Indian Open in 2000 and then I won the Order of Merit in 2002 I think if I'm not off. Yeah, those were the good years. I have a lot of good memories."
