Lahiri carded a sedate one-under-71 in tough scoring conditions on Friday to extend his overnight lead by two shots and take his total to 11-under-205. Kolkata\u2019s SSP Chowrasia shot the day\u2019s best score of 67 to occupy second place at seven-under-209 at the Rs. 50 lakh event.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>Anirban Lahiri (64-70-71), the overnight leader by two shots, started day three by converting a tricky seven-feet birdie putt on the second. He picked up another shot on the fifth to go two-under for the day. The 26-year-old lost some momentum after missing the green and subsequently missing a five-footer for par on the eighth. The Asian Tour No. 3 came back well with an eight-feet birdie conversion on the 13th. Anirban was in trouble once again after he hit it out of bounds on the 14th but made a great recovery to salvage a bogey there. Lahiri is now looking at his fourth win in four starts on the PGTI. He has won the last three PGTI tournaments he has appeared in.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Anirban said, \u201cThe conditions were the toughest today compared to the last two days. It was windy and the tees were back. I felt I didn\u2019t have any momentum today. I just didn\u2019t have a good stretch of holes unlike previous rounds. The two bogeys didn\u2019t allow me to settle down. I could\u2019ve done better on the par-5s as well. Nonetheless, I was glad to make a splendid recovery on the 14th after hitting it out of bounds. SSP and Shankar were outstanding today as they shot really good scores in the difficult conditions.\u201d<br \/>&nbsp; <br \/>SSP Chowrasia (68-74-67), climbed from overnight tied ninth to second place after shooting the day\u2019s best score of five-under-67. SSP, a two-time winner on the European Tour, had a slow start to the day as he bogeyed the second and fourth. Chowrasia came roaring back with birdies on the fifth and sixth to get back to even-par for the day. He was on fire on the back-nine making four straight birdies from the 12th through the 15th. The 15-feet birdie putt on the 17th helped him close the day on a high.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Chowrasia said, \u201cI had my best round of the tournament today. I set up many birdie opportunities for myself. I sank two long birdie putts and just got on a roll from the 12th onwards. I also landed it within a couple of feet of the pin on two occasions. I know I\u2019ll be up against some really tough competition in the final round as Anirban is playing extremely well at the moment. However, I feel I can put up a good fight in the last round.\u201d<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Faridabad\u2019s Abhinav Lohan came up with a 74 in round three after his two scores of 68 to end the day in third place at six-under-210. Panchkula-based professional Angad Cheema was a further shot back in fourth place.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Kolkata golfer Shankar Das posted a brilliant 68 to be placed joint fifth along with Chandigarh\u2019s Sujjan Singh at four-under-212. Shankar\u2019s round featured a magical moment as he holed his second shot from 170 yards to make eagle on the par-4 15th.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Rahil Gangjee of Kolkata was in seventh place at three-under-213.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Reigning Rolex Rankings champion Rashid Khan of Delhi lies in 10th place at even-par-216 while Himmat Singh Rai is placed 12th at two-over-218.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>Fifteen-year-old amateur Varun Parikh (75-75-79) of Ahmedabad was in tied 46th place after his third round of 79 that took his total score to 13-over-229.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahmedabad: Bangalore\u2019s Anirban Lahiri enjoys a four-shot advantage going into the final round of the PGTI Ahmedabad Masters presented by Kalhaar Blues &amp; Greens, a PGTI Super Series event.
