Nice to see Anirban regain form this month after several months of dismal performances!

I was following the progress of Anirban in the 3rd an 4th round. Unfortunately, Anirban couldn't get going in the last round until the last two holes as each birdie was being negated with a bogey and even a double bogey. The birdies in last two holes helped him to finish in top 10. He started the last round as T3 and in contention but unfortunately played his worst round to finish T9. If he could have matched any of his prior round in the last round, he would have finished T2.

But good to see him on TV (in 3rd round) and return to some form on PGA tour. Hopefully, he will build on this performance.

A steady 3 under first round by Anirban to remain in top-10 ... He scored four birdies on the 2nd to the 5th holes, but scored a bogey on the last hole.

Anirban's roller coaster performance continues ... After scored 5 under in the third round he jumped to T25th position from the last place after two rounds ... He scored six birdies and single bogey in this round.

After playing quiet front nine, Anirban finished with a good last round of 3 under par, with an eagle at 14 and birdies at 10 and 13, while dropping a stroke at 11. But for disastrous 2nd round, he could have easily finished in top 10 again or even top 5.

Decent rhythm back in his game (apart from that poor second round).

Good tournament for Anirban to move up from T68 after round 2 and just making the weekend. Could have been excellent but for the one bad round. With this he moves back to top 100 in world rankings, which he had slipped out for few weeks.

Anirban Lahiri had a terrific bogey free 9 under par round today. He is currently leading the tournament with a score of 12 under par. :notworthy:

More than half of the players are yet to tee off and his current position will change.

Unbelievable round by Anirban! I suspect he will be near the top at the end of the second round even though lots of players are still on the course. His putting must have been on fire as he made most of his birdies from 10-20 feet range.
