The Chandigarh golfer\u2019s 54-hole total read 11-under 205.<p>Bangladesh\u2019s Jamal Hossain carded the day\u2019s best score of 67 to rise one spot to second place at nine-under 207.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>It seems to be a two-horse race between Ajeetesh (69-67-69) and Jamal (67-73-67) heading into the fourth and final round as they enjoy a big gap over the rest of the field.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>M. Dharma (71) of Bengaluru was a distant third at four under 212 while Chandigarh\u2019s Yuvraj Sandhu (71) and Delhi\u2019s Rashid Khan (72) were tied for fourth at three under 213.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sandhu began the day on a positive note with a birdie on the second but then had some anxious moments with bogeys on the eighth and ninth. After finding the bushes and having an unplayable ball on the ninth, the 36-year-old Sandhu recovered well by making a tricky 10-foot conversion there to salvage a bogey when it could\u2019ve been worse for him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>This was followed by an eight-foot birdie conversion by Sandhu on the 10th that proved to be the beginning of his comeback. Sandhu then capitalised on the remaining two par-5s, the 14th and 18th, with birdies and also scored a birdie with a short-range conversion on the 15th.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Jamal Hossain, winner of PGTI\u2019s last event played in Assam last month, bounced back into contention with a 67 after being four shots off the lead in third position at the halfway stage. Jamal\u2019s great ball-striking earned him birdies on three of the four par-5s. He had three more birdies on his card other than a lone bogey.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>This was followed by an eight-foot birdie conversion by Sandhu on the 10th that proved to be the beginning of his comeback. Sandhu then capitalised on the remaining two par-5s, the 14th and 18th, with birdies and also scored a birdie with a short-range conversion on the 15th.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><b>Also Read: <\/b> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/tagging\/highest-tax-paying-cricketers\">Highest tax paying cricketers<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Article Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/ians.in\/english-wire\/sports\/1\" rel=\"nofollow\">IANS<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n",
