JAIPUR: The PGTI Ranking leader Yuvraj Sandhu fired a determined third-round score of four-under 66 to establish a three-shot lead at a total of 16-under 194 in the Jaipur Open 2025, an INR 1 crore event, being played at the Rambagh Golf Club in Jaipur on Thursday.

Yuvraj Sandhu (65-63-66), who was in second place and one shot off the lead at the start of round three, produced an eagle, four birdies, and two bogeys during his 66 to take control in the penultimate round. Chandigarh golfer Yuvraj, playing in Jaipur after four years, is now in pursuit of his sixth PGTI title this season. If Yuvraj does go on to bag his sixth win of 2025, he would match the PGTI record for most titles in a season set by Manu Rumor in 2022.

Kushal Singh (64-63-70), the halfway leader by one shot, had a mixed day as he came up with a 70 punctuated by four birdies and two double-bogeys that saw him slip to second place at 13-under 197. Bangladesh’s Badal Hossain (65-67-66) posted a flawless 66 to rise four spots and end the day in third place at 12-under 198.
