India's top golfers Jeev Milkha Singh and Jyoti Randhawa finished joint seventh after rain led to the cancellation of the final round's play at the Yen 120,000,000 Acom International being played at the Ishioka Golf Club in Japan.

Jeev and Randhawa were tied after a three-round aggregate of seven-under 206 courtesy third round scores of three-under 68 and four-under 67 respectively in the event that is a part of the Japanese PGA Tour, a press release said in New Delhi on Sunday.
