Haryana Open 2024: Rahil Gangjee Regains Lead, Varun Parikh Gives Chase On Day Three
Panchkula Golf Club: First-round leader Rahil Gangjee of Bengaluru regained the lead on the third day of the INR 1 crore Haryana Open 2024 being played at the Panchkula Golf Club (PGC) following his solid round of five-under 67 that moved his total to 15-under 201. Varun Parikh of Ahmedabad, who too had a great start to the week like Rahil but slipped in round two, also bounced back with a 67 on Saturday that placed him second at 14-under 202.
The PGTI Ranking leader Veer Ahlawat of Gurugram too struck a 67 to make his way to tied third at 12-under 204. Pune’s Rohan Dhole Patil (67) and Chandigarh’s Akshay Sharma (70) joined Ahlawat in tied third position. Angad Cheema (71) was the other Chandigarh-based player in the top 10 as he occupied tied sixth place at 11-under 205 along with Dhruv Sheoran and Sachin Baisoya. Halfway leader Pukhraj Singh Gill (74) of Ludhiana dropped to tied ninth place at 10-under 206.
Rahil Gangjee (63-71-67), who was overnight tied third and two off the lead, had a mixed front-nine where he sank three birdies largely thanks to his excellent 3-wood shots and dropped two bogeys as a result of finding the rough on both occasions.
