Jeev's plan for the year

Bhushan,

Very wisely, Jeev has decided to stay in Japan till the time he secures his 2005 card. That looks like about 15 million yen. Our man is two-third there.

As for the future, PGA Tour Q-School is definitely on the cards. But not the European Tour.

It is a natural human tendency to be in awe of a Superman, and also root for the downtrodden, the vulnerable. John Daly has both qualities. Also...

Simi located!

Guess why Simi ainn't playing the Futures Tour event? That's because she got into the LPGA Corning Classic. Did not have the best of starts - tied 111th at three-over 75. Five bogies and two birdies.

Annika and Liselotee Neumann lead the tournament seven-under 65.
