Amandeep Drall takes first-round lead in 5th leg of WPGT

Amandeep Drall carded a brilliant 3-under 69 in the opening round to grab a three shot lead at the fifth leg of Hero WPGT.

Drall, who won the Hero WPGT 2020-21, started a bit slow as in the first-nine holes she only managed to score 1-over 37.

But she had a completely error-free back-nine, in which she shot four birdies and five pars to end her day as a table topper with a score of 3-under 69.

Jahanvi Bakshi, one of the most consistent performers on WPGT, shit an even-par 72 to occupy solo second heading into the second round.
