<p>Title favourites Gurbani Singh and Aditi Ashok both carded two-over 74 to set up an intriguing final round clash in the Usha Southern India Ladies and Junior Girls golf championship here on Wednesday. <br /><br /></p>.<p>While Gurbani’s round propelled her to the top of the leaderboard with a two-round total of 148, Aditi’s topsy-turvy card left her one shot behind in second place at the Karnataka Golf Association.<br /><br />Gauri Monga too matched the duo’s score of the day to rise to third spot at 152 while surprise overnight leader Amandeep Drall found the conditions extremely difficult, carding a disastrous nine-over 81 to share the fourth spot along with Millie Saroha at 154.<br /><br />After holing out a bogey-five on the third hole, Gurbani opted to play percentage golf, parring the next 12 holes before dropping another shot on the 16th hole. However, she rescued herself with a birdie on the next hole, undoing the good work with a bogey on the closing 18th.<br /><br />Aditi made a promising start to the day, picking up a stroke on the first hole. Disaster struck immediately as she bogeyed the second hole before sinking a double bogey on the 12th. Just like Gurbani, Aditi returned to the club house with mixed feelings, finding a birdie on the 17th and a bogey on the 18th.<br /><br />Leading scores (after 36 holes): Ladies: 148: Gurbani Singh (74, 74); 149: Aditi Ashok (75, 74); 152: Gauri Monga (78, 74); 154: Millie Saroha (74, 80), Amandeep Drall (73, 81); 156: Gurimar Badwal (80, 76).<br /><br />Category A (15-17 years): 148: Gurbani Singh (74, 74); 154: Millie Saroha (74, 80); 157: Raksha Phadke (76, 81); 158: Vrishali Sinha (83, 75); 161: Isha Kapoor (80, 81).<br /><br />Category B (13-14): 149: Aditi Ashok (75, 74); 157: Ridhima Dilawari (80, 77); 159: Ankita Kedlaya (79, 80); 164: Gurjot Badwal (79, 85); 166: Seher Atwal (84, 82).<br />Category C (11-12): 175: Tanirika Singh (91, 84); 182: Harnemat Toor Kaur (93, 89); 183: Riya Ahuja (91, 92); 187: Arshia Mahant (92, 95).<br />Category D (below 10): 184: Vasundhara Thiara (91, 93); 185: Tanishka Kumar (93, 92); 197: Tiya Chowdary (97, 100), Anika Varma (95, 102).</p>
