Professional Golf Tour of India 2026 1 2026-02-05 2026-02-05 The third round, traditionally known as "Moving Day," at the Fairway Golf & Lake Resort is where the separation typically occurs in the PGTI season opener. The primary challenge for the field is the venue's intricate back nine, where water hazards flanking the fairways become even more penalizing as the tournament committee sets more aggressive pin positions. The objective for the leaders is to maintain their scoring rhythm on the par-69 layout, while the chasers must take calculated risks to close the gap on the top of the leaderboard in this INR 1.5 Crore event. Strategically, the penultimate round is a test of aggression versus course management. The goal for the players is to capitalize on the scoring opportunities at the par-5s, while showing discipline on the technical par-4s where the native rough and water can lead to costly errors. The tactical focus for the contenders is managing the mid-afternoon heat and potential crosswinds off the lake, which make club selection a deceptive task on the par-3s. With the final round pairings at stake, the ultimate goal for the day is to post a sub-65 score and secure a place in the championship hunt. 2461869
