PGTI Order of Merit leader Yuvraj Sandhu put himself three clear heading into the final round of the Jaipur Open 2025, firing a four-under 66 to reach 16-under 194 at Rambagh Golf Club.
Sandhu began Saturday one back in second, then wrestled control with a round that had a bit of everything: an eagle, four birdies and two bogeys. He stumbled early with a bogey at the first, but settled quickly—birdies at the third and 12th, plus a momentum-flipping chip-in eagle at the eighth. When a missed up-and-down led to another bogey on 15, Sandhu answered with back-to-back birdies on the closing par-5s, 17 and 18, to stretch the gap.
Halfway leader Kushal Singh couldn’t quite keep pace. His even-par 70—four birdies, but also two double-bogeys—dropped him to second at 13-under 197.
Bangladesh’s Badal Hossain quietly moved into the conversation with a bogey-free 66, climbing to solo third at 12-under 198.
Sandhu said his putter wasn’t as cooperative as he wanted, but called his ball-striking “top-notch,” adding that the opening-hole bogey “was a good wake-up call.” He’s chasing a sixth PGTI win of the season—and if he closes it out, he would match the PGTI record for most titles in a single season.
Among the Jaipur locals, Hemendra Choudhary sat tied 28th at three-under 207, with Prakhar Asawa tied 42nd at even-par 212.
