The 43-year-old Kolkata pro, aiming to break a 10-year title jinx on the Tour, was three strokes ahead of city-mate SSP Chowrasia and Gast Ram with 69 apiece. Pappan and Zai Kipgen shared the fourth spot with a total of 2-under par 70 while five others - Sandeep Syal, Sanjay Kumar, Suleman Ali, Vishal Singh and Yusuf Ali - were sharing the sixth position. Asgar, who battled back pain to stake his claim for the title, had birdies on the third before a bogey on the fifth. But he came back strongly firing a quadruple of birdies beginning from the sixth to be four-under for the front nine. Asgar played it a little safe on the back nine adding only a couple of birdies on the 14th and the par-3 16th which is the signature hole of the course. In the amateur section, Anitya Chand led the field with a well-compiled one-over 73. Top scores: 66 - Asgar Ali; 69 - Gast Ram, SSP Chowrasia; 70 - Pappan, Zai Kipgen; 71 - Sandeep Syal, Sanjay Kumar, Suleman Ali, Vishal Singh, Yusuf Ali; 72 - Ashok Kumar, Rafiq Ali, Raj Singh. — PTI
