Did you know... that when Shiv Chowrasia, a former caddie, won the 2008 Indian Masters golf tournament, he became the third Indian to win a European Tour event?

Dubious sentence[edit]

I'm unhappy with the following sentence "This victory was also a record of sorts with him becoming the first golfer to win a European Tour event held at home." For one it doesn't define what home means. I wouldn't view MSN as a reliable source for golf records, this would be mentioned by the European Tour (on this page [1]) itself if this was the case. Asides Els has won numerous times on the European Tour at Wentworth where he lives. I suspect what they are trying to report is that this was the first European Tour event played in India.

Agree, ambiguous to the point of obscurity. Removed. big issue 22:39, 1 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Chowrasia or Chawrasia ??[edit]

Your article and the website of the European Tour call him CHAWRASIA [2], but I think this is an error. Look here PGA of India, Faxebook, NDTV, Mid-day and Times of India. Pvt pauline~commonswiki (talk) 06:40, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
