"Depending upon whose version you believe, it was either a doctored scorecard or he was made a scapegoat for a tour official's error.

In any event, he was accused of cheating and banned from tournament golf for two years.

Singh was more or less blacklisted. He could not play and every job he applied for was denied until he caught on at a golf club that may be considered the most remote frontier in golf, the Keningau Club deep in the rain forests of Borneo where American oil workers went for rest and relaxation."

Pro golf has alot of talent but very little personality these days. Most of the players are stiff and boring. Guys like Lee Trevino, Lanny Wadkins, Fuzzy Zoeller all brought something more than just a good swing to the game.

Fascinating. Thanks for the information. Neither version of the story would really surprise me, or change my opinion of Mr. Singh at this distance.
