Hyderabad: Gursimar Badwal continued from where she left off last week with a round of two-over 73 to take the sole lead after the opening round of the 11th leg of the Hero Womens Professional Golf Tour here on Wednesday.
The 24-year-old Kapurthala golfer, who is seeking a hat-trick of wins after winning both the legs in Bengaluru last month, was one shot clear of Amandeep Drall and Smriti Mehra, who shot 74 each at the HGA Club.
Gursimar, whose form was rather modest for the first eight legs of the Hero WPGT, during which her best was tied-3rd in Eagleton in the seventh leg in July, has been in excellent form since last month.
Sonam Chugh and Siddhi Kapoor carded 75 each to be tied fourth, while Ayesha Kapur, Saaniya Sharma and Trisha Sunil shot 76 each to be tied sixth. Amateur Rhea P. Saravanan (78) and Afshan Fatima (79) completed the top-10.
