Randhawa’s three-day total stands at seven-under 206. Seasoned pro Jeev Milkha Singh also regained some form and carded a three-under 68 to total two-under 211 and shoot up 32 places to tied 26th.
Jeev slotted in four birdies against just a lone bogey for a reasonably good day on the course. But the slide continued for Shiv Kapur. The Delhi-pro returned a four-over 75 in the third round to be tied 72nd with a total of five-over 218. Randhawa managed three birdies against two bogeys and an equal number of double bogeys.
German Martin Kaymer (71) took the top spot with a total of nine-under 204. Following him a stroke behind was England’s Steve Webster, who managed a 70 in the third round.
Atwal slips to tied 20th
Arjun Atwal failed to break par for the second successive day and settled for a modest one-over 71 to slip six rungs to tied 20th after the penultimate round of the AT&T Nationals golf tournament in Pennsylvania.
Playing on a sponsor’s exemption, the Orlando-based Indian, who led the pack after the opening round, totals one-under 209 in three rounds. Atwal dropped a stroke on the 11th hole to round off another over-par day.
Englishman Justin Rose led by a formidable four strokes after 67 in the third round left 10-under 200 overall. Swede Carl Pettersson (65) and Charlie Wi (70) occupied the second spot.
