Chandigarh golfer Manjot Singh and Jamshedpur’s Kurush Heerjee held the joint lead at a total of 7-under 135 after round two of the PGTI NEXGEN’s Phillaur Open being played at the Ranjitgarh Golf Club in Phillaur, Punjab. Chandarjeet Yadav (64) of Chandimandir, Amrit Lal (66) of Chandigarh and Delhi’s Wasim Khan (69) were placed tied third at totals of six-under 136.

The cut went at 3-over 145. The top 37 professionals made the cut for the third and final round. Heerjee (68-67) mixed six birdies and two bogeys during his opening round. Nineteen-year-old Manjot (66-69) made an eagle, three birdies and three bogeys to continue in the joint lead for the second straight day.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
