Jeev Singh
Finished tied for 67th at the PGA Championship. In the par 3 coverage I anchored for CBS and DIRECTV here in Minnesota, we were able to feature Jeev prominently and talk a lot about ACU, former ACU golf coach Vince Jarrett, current coach Mike Campbell whose brother Chad played in the tournament (T43), and the fact that so many ACU alumni are involved with golf.
