With a hefty ground on Day 3 at Kasumigaseki Country Club, Indian golfer Aditi Ashok stands her ground with a sole second position on the Olympics leaderboard with 12 under at a total of 201 strokes. Round 3 came to a close for a girl with the silver glimmer at 3 under 68 packed with five birdies and two bogeys.

The leader on the board, USA’s Nelly Korda has closed the round with 15 under at a total of 198 with three birdies and a bogey with Round 3 at 2 under 69 for the 72 par course. World No.1 is trying her absolute best to maintain her position on the leaderboard channelising her strokes on the play. 

 

The bronze position currently runs wild on a tie between New Zealand’s Lydia Ko, Australia’s Hannah Green, Denmark’s Emily Kristine Pedersen and Japan’s Mone Inami with 10 under at a total of 203.

Rolling high to chase the Olympic medal in women’s golf, Sweden’s Madelene Sagstrom, Japan’s Nasa Hataoka and Denmark’s Nanna Koerstz Madsen ran tied 7 with a hope to grow better on the game. 

 

Playing her debutant at the Olympics, Indian golfer Diksha Dagar played tied 51 with 7 over at a total of 220 hoping to grow on her chase with 1 over 72 at the end of Round 3. 

 

Hoping for a better day for Indian women’s golf tomorrow, the probability runs close to play a 54 par due to the changing weather conditions at Kasumigaseki Country Club.
