Smiling Joshi became the leader of the day while  Chandigarh\u2019s Angad Cheema shot one-under 71 for the second position.  Delhi\u2019s Gagan Verma, Chandigarh\u2019s Abhijit Chadha and the No. 1 Amateur  of the country, S. Chikkarangappa, \u2013 all tied for third position with  level par 72.<\/p>\n<p> Khalin Joshi, 19, had a superb round as he shot five birdies on the 2nd,  4th, 10th, 15th and 17th but bogeys on 5th and 6th pegged him a bit on  the front nine. Joshi said, \u201cI am pretty fine with the way I played  today but somehow I wasn\u2019t confident enough on first nine. I was just  managing the shots rather then playing them nicely. Though, I didn\u2019t hit  great in the front nine and missed 6-footer birdie on the 12th and  3-footer on 13th, I hit 14 regulations throughout the round. I just need  to get my confidence back and I am sure it\u2019s going to be good week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> Chikka, who is known for a balanced round on the first day of any  tournament, had done enough to keep himself in the top three. He started  the day from 10th tee and made a bogey on the 11th which wasn\u2019t a great  beginning for him. He then birdied the 16th, 1st and 4th and missed  couple of shots for a bogey on the 5th and 8th hole. \u201cI am pretty happy  with my swing and the changes I made in the last couple of days. I  always used to miss on the left fairway and after working hard on it, I  started missing on the right which is good for me because the ball  usually drops or stops on the right side. I feel I have to practice at  least 50 wedges today to make my game better in next three days, \u201csaid,  Chikka.<\/p>\n<p> The golf course was in best condition today as the players like Angad  Cheema mentioned, \u201cThere was nothing better I could ask for. I played  here 5 times as an amateur as well as junior but never seen the great  conditions like today. If greens will remain as soft as today, the  scores will definitely go lower in the upcoming days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>Kolkata: <\/strong>Bangalore\u2019s Khalin Joshi\u2019s facial expressions said it  all as he returned with a scorecard of three-under 69 on the opening  day of RCGC Cup Amateur Golf Championship at The Royal Calcutta Golf  Course, Kolkata.
