 Event Preview - Six to watch this week

Vijay Singh
The big Fijian, a former world number one, is still on top of his game despite being into his 40s. He finished runner-up recently on the US PGA Tour but his solid all-round game will make him one of the favourites at DLF. Singh, who has won over 50 career titles, has an impressive track record in Asia where he has won five times across the region, his last being the 2007 Korean Open. He is presently ranked ninth in the world.

Adam Scott
The supremely talented Australian is a former winner of the Johnnie Walker Classic following his victory in Beijing several years ago and as the highest ranked player in the world at number five, Scott will be strongly tipped to challenge for honours at DLF. He has one of the best golf swings in the game and the temperament to close out a victory when he’s in contention.

Jyoti Randhawa
Randhawa is expected to mount a serious challenge on his home course. The Indian is also in good form and will be ready to make amends for his disappointing finish at the Emaar-MGF Indian Masters where he led after the first round but faded as the week went on. On home soil, Randhawa is prolific and has won five Asian Tour titles in India previously. Randhawa came close to victory in the 2004 Johnnie Walker Classic when he finished tied second in Bangkok.

Anton Haig
The big South African will be eager to deliver a second successive victory in the Johnnie Walker Classic. Last year, Haig defeated compatriot Richard Sterne and Oliver Wilson in a thrilling play-off to capture what was his career’s biggest win yet as the field included famous compatriots Ernie Els and Retief Goosen.

Thongchai Jaidee
Thongchai will be teeing up at DLF with all guns blazing. The Thai star, a two-time Asian Tour number one, was floored by a flu bug when he visited India earlier in the month and subsequently missed the Enjoy Jakarta Astro Indonesia Open. For the first time last season, Thongchai failed to win a title since 2000 and he will be looking to increase on his tally of eight titles on the Asian Tour this week.

Jeev Milkha Singh
The 2006 Asian Tour number one has enjoyed a week’s break after his disappointing finish in Indonesia, where he bogeyed the last hole to finish second. Singh enjoys playing the DLF course and will be ready to make amends for his slip-up in the previous week.
