KUALA LUMPUR, APRIL 5. Jyoti Randhawa would lead a strong group of six Indians who will vie for a place at the prestigious British Open when the 36-hole International Final Qualifying Asia begins here tomorrow. Other Indians hoping for a trip to St. Andrews, the home of golf, are Jeev Milkha Singh, who missed out on a spot in 2004 losing in a play-off, Gaurav Ghei, who played at the Open in 1997, Amandeep Johl, Harmeet Kahlon and Rahil Gangjee. A total of 31 players will battle it out for three tickets to the Open at the Saujana Golf and Country Club. Randhawa has played in three British Opens. He became the first Indian to play in four rounds. Randhawa, Asia's number one in 2002 and 2004, is convinced that an Asian can win the Open in the near future. ``A few guys in Asia are certainly capable of winning anything. This year, we've had Thongchai (Jaidee) and Thaworn (Wiratchant) winning European Tour-sanctioned events and Arjun (Atwal) nearly won the Bellsouth,'' said Randhawa. — PTI
