Jeev slides to tied 49th at PGA Championship

Chaska (USA): A sub-par card continues to elude Jeev Milkha Singh, who turned in two-over 74 in his penultimate round to slip a rung to tied 49th in the 91st PGA Championship golf tournament here.With a 54-hole total of five-over 221, Jeev joined Fred Couples, Jim Furyk, Luke Donald, Justin Leonard and Jeff Overton at the 49th place and his quest for an automatic place in the Greg Norman-led International team for the Presidents Cup seems over since the Indian would require an improbable top-four finish for that.

In such a case, Jeev would pray for favour when Norman selects two captain`s pick. Jeev found going hard at the Hazeltine National Golf Club and the front nine proved a barren stretch that did not yield a single birdie while he dropped two shots on the fourth and eighth. Bureau Report
