The three golfers are  tied at 12-under 198.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rashid Khan, the second round joint leader, is in fourth place with the next best total of 11-under 199. <\/p>\n<p>Three-time  Indian Open champion Jyoti Randhawa (67-65-66) had a great time on the  front nine as he made four birdies (first, third, fourth and fifth)  thanks to some accurate hitting. The Gurgaon-based professional sank a  20-feet birdie putt on the third. Randhawa was even par on the back nine  since he made a bogey on the 14th and a birdie on the 18th. The  39-year-old thus posted a four under 66 to rise from overnight tied  fourth place to the top of the leaderboard. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll attribute  today\u2019s solid round to great course management and good swinging of the  club. My confidence was high since I was swinging well and that resulted  in some good hitting. However, I could\u2019ve fared better on the back nine  where I only managed to play par. I\u2019m looking forward to finishing well  at this venue since I won my first tournament as a professional at this  very course back in 1996,\u201d said Randhawa. <\/p>\n<p>Vikrant Chopra  (65-67-66) of Delhi also shot a four under 66 on Friday and climbed from  overnight tied fourth place to joint first. Chopra, who has had four  top-10s on the Aircel PGTI in 2011 and is currently placed 13th in the  Rolex Rankings, made five birdies against a bogey in round three. He  sank a 20-footer for birdie on the 16th and converted some crucial  birdie putts from a distance of 10 feet. <\/p>\n<p>Vikrant said, \u201cMy  putting was spot-on today. I knocked down all putts from a range of 10  to 12 feet. I\u2019ve been playing well over the last few weeks since I\u2019m  sticking to my process and strategy. I\u2019m currently feeling good about  all aspects of my game. I\u2019ll look to approach the final round with a mix  of caution and aggression. I\u2019ll play aggressively wherever possible and  will be conservative when the situation demands it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Kapurthala\u2019s  Gaganjeet Bhullar (66-65-67) improved from his overnight third place to  joint first as a result of his three under 67 in the third round.  Bhullar had a fabulous run of four birdies on the first six holes  (first, third, fourth and sixth). He then made bogeys on the 13th and  15th before picking up his last birdie of the day on the 18th. Gaganjeet  collected birdies on three out of four par-5 holes courtesy his solid  hitting. Rashid Khan (67-62-70) of Delhi, who equaled the course record  of 62 in round two, fired an even par 70 on day three to be placed  fourth at 11 under 199. <\/p>\n<p>Kolkata\u2019s Rahil Gangjee is fifth at nine  under 201 while the Delhi trio of Chiragh Kumar, Ali Sher and Shamim  Khan share sixth place at seven under 203 along with Gurgaon-based  Digvijay Singh.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Mumbai:<\/strong> Jyoti Randhawa, Gaganjeet Bhullar and Vikrant Chopra  are in the joint lead after round three of the CG Open 2011 being played  at the par-70 Bombay Presidency Golf Club (BPGC).
