On Sunday, Aditi Ashok became the first Indian to win a tournament on the Ladies European Tour. A look at five other landmark moments in Indian golf:1965 The first Indian Open winner from IndiaThe first Indian Open was played in 1964, nine years after the establishment of the sports governing body the Indian Golf Union, and five-time British Open champion Peter Thomson won the inaugural event at the Delhi Golf Club. The following year, the event was held at the par-73 Royal Calcutta Golf Course, and Indian amateur Prem Gopal Sethi (also known as Billoo) stunned a strong foreign contingent to win by a margin of seven strokes. Sethi began his first two rounds with successive five-under-68 scores, and paved the way for seven other Indians to have picked up the most prestigious title on Indian soil, including Jyoti Randhawa who won three times.1982 Asian Games double for Laxman SinghGolf has been a regular fixture at the Asian Games since the 1982 edition in New Delhi, India, and the Indians havent been as successful as they were in the first edition. Laxman Singh picked up the individual gold, beating compatriot Rajiv Mohta by three strokes. Singh and Mohta then combined with Amit Luthra and Rishi Narain to pick up the team gold ahead of South Korea and Japan. India have only won three more medals at subsequent editions of the Asian Games -- Shiv Kapur picked up the individual gold in 2002, and then the Indian team won silvers in both 2006 and 2010.1996 First Indian to qualify for the LPGAKolkata-born Simi Mehra turned professional in 1994, and by then had already picked up titles as an amateur, including one at the Malaysian National Championship in 1993. She would then try her luck at the LPGA through Qualifying School in 1995-96, with as many as 25 titles under her belt. She made it through to the LPGA Tour at her first attempt, and played in the top tier of womens golf in three stints between 1996 and 2008. After a long break, during which she was also instrumental in setting up the Womens Golf Association of India, she re-entered the Symetra Tour to qualify for the LPGA Tour again in 2017, but missed the cut at the first stage in August.2006 Jeev makes the top 100Jeev Milkha Singh began the calendar year with a ranking in the late 300s. His first event of the year was at the Asian Tour Pakistan Open, where he produced a tied-2nd rank to set the tone for what remains easily his best year since turning pro. There were two title wins on the Japan Golf Tour to round off the year, though he first improved his rankings with a one-stroke win at the China Open, co-sanctioned between the Asian and European Tours. Jeev headed into the prestigious European Tour Volvo Masters in October - the last official money event of the Tour that has since been replaced by the Dubai World Championship - in 147th rank, and beat a field comprising Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia and Padraig Harrington (all of whom lost by a single shot to him) to pick up his fourth title in the year. This took him to 77th, becoming the first Indian male golfer to break into the top-100 of the world golf rankings. His career-best ranking remains 28th.2010 Atwal strikes gold at WyndhamIt was in 2003 that Arjun Atwal finished seventh at the PGA Tour qualifying school and earned a regular card to compete at the sports most competitive field as the first Indian golfer, and only the second of Indian origin after Vijay Singh of Fiji. In 2010, he was close to losing his regular card when he headed to the Wyndham Championship at the Sedgefield country club in North Carolina. He began with a tournament joint-best 9-under-61 in the first round, and maintained his composure on the par-70 course with subsequent scores of 67, 65 and 67. His win by one stroke over USAs David Toms remains the only PGA Tour title by an Indian golfer, besides improving his ranking from 450 to 182 across four days. Mattia Caldara Jersey . Michell Burger, a woman who lives on an estate next to Pistorius gated community, said she and her husband were awoken by the screams in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14 last year, when Pistorius killed Reeva Steenkamp by shooting four times through a door in his bathroom. Cristiano Ronaldo Jersey . -- Brandon Jennings made the most of his first game with the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night. http://www.juventusfcpro.com/Kids-Claudio-Marchisio-Jersey/ . Rinne played two periods in his first game since left hip surgery in early May. Gabriel Bourque scored 3:07 into the second period and Austin Watson tallied 5:15 later for Nashville. Juventus Jerseys . This should be celebrated because it will not always be this way. With the amount of money given to players by their clubs these days, it is a wonder that so many of those teams allow the sport to continue to take away many of their assets so they can play for a different team in the middle of their season. Wojciech Szczesny Jersey . The recently retired Stern was elected Friday to the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and will be enshrined with the class of 2014 on Aug. LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- Star receiver Alshon Jeffery was suspended Monday for four games without pay for violating the NFLs policy on performance-enhancing substances, the latest staggering blow for the reeling Chicago Bears.Jeffery posted on Twitter that he took a supplement for inflammation containing a substance banned by the league.I take full responsibility and Im deeply upset with myself for not doing the proper research on this supplement, he wrote. I want to apologize to my family, the Bears organization, my teammates, and Bears fans. I will work hard to earn back the respect and trust of the Bears nation and look forward to being back on the field.His suspension was another dose of bad news for a team that lost several players to injuries in an embarrassing 36-10 loss at Tampa Bay that left the Bears with a 2-7 record. Now, they will have to get by without arguably their best player, starting with Sundays game at the New York Giants.Obviously were very disappointed, coach John Fox said. I think hes fairly embarrassed about it, but well support him and welcome him when he gets back after serving his suspension.As if Jefferys punishment wasnt enough, it looks like the Bears will be without star right guard Kyle Long. The NFL Network reported Monday that he will miss the remainder of the season with an ankle injury.Jeffery will be eligible to be activated on Dec. 12 and play against Green Bay six days later. He leads the team with 630 yards receiving and is second with 40 catches.It (stinks) not having your top weapon on offense, tight end Zach Miller said. We have to figure out ways to be better, to do better collectively. But I dont think you really replace Alshon Jeffery that easily. Well have to do it as a group.Jeffery is playing for the $14.6 million franchise tag after he and the Bears were unable to agree to a long-term contract in the offseason. He was limited to nine games because of injuries a year ago, and now has a PED suspension hanging over him with his contract set to expire again.Fox said players found out during meetings on Monday.All teammates, I think, at the end of the day, theyre supportive, Fox said. But I know Alshons embarrassed by it and Im sure disappointed would be a good word for the rest of us.FFox mentioned a silver lining with receiver Marquess Wilson potentially returning soon from a foot injury.dddddddddddd He has been on the physically unable to perform list since training camp. But his comeback would be small consolation, particularly given the rash of injuries the Bears suffered against the Buccaneers.Long, a three-time Pro Bowl lineman, left the field on a cart with a right ankle injury. Fox indicated after the game that it might be a high ankle sprain, though he said Monday a full determination on the injury had not been made. Ted Larsen figures to take his place in the lineup, though Eric Kush is a possibility.Fox had no update on running back Jordan Howard (ankle or Achilles tendon), nose tackle Eddie Goldman (ankle) or defensive lineman Will Sutton (ankle). Right tackle Bobby Massie also suffered a concussion.The loss to Tampa Bay also raised more questions about the direction of the franchise and wiped out any good vibes the Bears had after they knocked off NFC North leader Minnesota two weeks earlier.Jay Cutler threw two interceptions and fumbled twice after leading the Bears to a victory over the Vikings in his return from a sprained right thumb. It all added up to a big reality check for a team that was as confident as any with two wins halfway through the season could be.The Bears thought they might turn the corner with key players coming back from injuries. Instead, they crashed.I still feel like were not out of it, Miller said.Mathematically, theyre not.The Bears trail Detroit and Minnesota by three games and Green Bay by two in the division. The Vikings are struggling in a big way with four straight losses. So are the Packers, who have dropped three in a row.But with Jefferys suspension, the Bears will have to get by without one of their biggest playmakers.I guess the best word I could use would be unfortunate, defensive end Akiem Hicks said. Because I look forward to seeing 17 (Jeffery) out there going up deep and catching balls and making plays. Its unfortunate and Im going to miss him.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys China NFL Hoodies Cheap NFL Jerseys Camo Wholesale Jerseys 2019 NFL Jerseys Cheap Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic NFL Jerseys From China Discount NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys From China Cheap NFL T-shirts Wholesale NFL Gear NFL Jerseys China NFL Jerseys Cheap Cheap Jerseys 2020 Cheap NFL Jerseys NFL Jerseys Cheap Cheap NFL Autographed Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
