Singh's victory enabled him to qualify for the Open Championship, where he made the cut and finished in a tie for 69th. The Indian, who has four European Tour victories to his name, has now risen into the top 100 in the world rankings.
"I just love links golf," continued Singh, although he had a different opinion when he first experienced it as a 16-year-old in 1988.That was for the qualifying rounds of the British Amateur Championship at Royal Porthcawl and also Pyle and Kenfig. He shot 87 and 84.
"I thought 'My God, this is tough'. I wasn't used to wearing raingear."
Singh's father Milkha was known as "The Flying Sikh", most famous for losing out on an Olympic 400 metres medal in a photo-finish in Rome in 1960.
A Bollywood film is currently being made about his life called Go Milkha Go. But on the final day in the Highlands it was a case of "Go Jeev Go".
