# Jeev Milkha Singh asks PGTI not to bar golfers from IGPL 2026-08-12T15:25:46+00:00 | Sports | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Jeev Milkha Singh has urged the Kapil Dev-led Professional Golf Tour of India (PGTI) not to bar players from the Indian Golf Premier League (IGPL). The 54-year-old golf legend said once a player fulfils his commitment to a tour, he should be free to explore other avenues for a "good livelihood" and to improve his game. The PGTI has prohibited players who compete in the IGPL from its events. Kapil Dev has given a similar ultimatum but also asked veteran Gaganjeet Bhullar to reconsider his IGPL decision. Jeev said the IGPL provides a pathway to the Asian Tour, which co-sanctions events with the DP World Tour. He noted that on the European and Japanese senior tours, members can play elsewhere after meeting minimum event commitments. He urged young Indian golfers to aim for the PGA Tour and become top-50 players. ## Coverage - sportstar.thehindu.com Tags: Asian Tour, IGPL, Indian golf, Jeev Milkha Singh, Kapil Dev, PGTI Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/jeev-milkha-singh-asks-pgti-not-to-bar-golfers-from-igpl/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
