| Surely, a unique feature. Four of the five sets are Indian and then there is a Korean-American pair. Pappan, a veteran on the Indian Tour for more than 10 years, but still looking for his first professional win was joint second at the midway stage of the richest event in India. |

| Also playing the event is his brother Shamim Khan, who last year shot a hole-in-one in Sher-e-Kashmir in Srinagar. |
| |
| Other brothers include 1998 Indian Open champion, Feroz Ali and Rafiq Ali; Mukesh Kumar and Dinesh Raghuvanshi; Ranjit Singh and Randhir Ghotra. |
| |
| The only foreign pair of brothers is Anthony Kang, who is now a US citizen, and his brother, David Kang, who still holds a Korean passport. |

| At home in Asia |
| |
| The Asian PGA Tour may not be the most lucrative in the world, but it sure does attract a lot of players from both the US and Europe. |
| |
| And these players, who have not been able to make it to the European or US PGA Tours, often like combining golf with some comfortable living in Asia. |
| |
| For instance, Scot Simon Yates lives in Hua Hin, Thailand, Nigerian-born Stephen Lindskog lives in Jakarta, Indonesia, Canadian Rick Gibson lives in Manila, Phillippines and is married to an actress Josephine Garcia. |
| |
| Living in America |
| |
| If there are a lot of Americans and Europeans in Asia, there are a sizeable number of Asians playing golf and living in the US. |
| |
| For instance, Indians Jeev Milkha Singh and Arjun Atwal, while maintaining their Indian cirizenship spend most of their time in the US. |
| |
| Atwal, of course plays in Europe most of the time, but goes off to the US every now and then. Korean Anthony Kang lives in the US and has even taken citizenship there. - Bogeyman |
