Nice to see Arjun Atwal gradually putting his game together again. Playing in Asia makes sense now that he is struggling to get into tournaments in the US, having lost his PGA tour card last year.

After Round 2, Anirban Lahiri leads the tournament by 2 shots. He shot a five-under-par 67 score on the day 2.
The current Asian Tour Order of Merit (OOM) leader David Lipsky is not playing this event and hence Anirban has a good chance to reduce the lead in the OOM.

Rahil Gangjee, Chirag Kumar & Himmat Rai have missed the cut.

Round 3 scores

T25 Arjun ATWAL -6
T37 Rashid KHAN -5
T62 Chikka S -1

Anirban Lahiri continuous to lead the King's Cup.

[suresh]

David Lipsky earned US$504,027 for winning the Omega European Masters and another 130K in another tournament. So the bulk of his earnings are from these two tournaments. On the other hand, Anirban Lahiri has been consistent with 7 top-10 finishes (with 2 wins) in 14 tournaments. He deserves to win the Asian Tour title this year. I hope he wins this week narrowing the gap of US$ 160K.
