Sangwan shines on Day One
On a day dominated by the overseas contingent, Delhi’s Piyush Sangwan shot a 73 to lead Category ‘B’ in the 4th Albatross International Junior Golf Championship in Greater Noida on Wednesday.
Sangwan, who has collected several titles this season, was followed by Luca Filippi of South Africa and Thailand’s Puwit Anupansuebsai.
Meanwhile, Tapendra Ghai topped Category A with a card of level-par 72.
He was one shot better than Feroz Garewal, and three ahead of Manu Gandas, giving India a good start in the category.
The Indian girls also sparkled on Day One, with Ankita Kedlaya and Seher Atwal excelling in Category B.
Ankita heads into the second day with a one-shot lead over Seher and Kanyalak Preedasutthijit of Thailand.
The star of the day was Malaysia’s Lucas Yee Jung Jin, who returned a brilliant three-under 69 in Category C. It was the day’s best score by far, and gave Lucas a commanding lead of nine shots.
Category A (girls) saw South Africa’s Cara Gorlei finish the 18 holes on 73, a lead of two over her fellow South African, Magda Kruger, and Benyapa Niphatsophon of Thailand.
