Singapore, Nov 8 (PTI) Indian golfer Ajeetesh Sandhu climbed 14 places to be Tied-36 after carding a third consecutive under-par round at the Singapore Open on Friday.

Ajeetesh added a 2-under 70 to his earlier rounds of 70 and 69 here at the Singapore Island Country Club to take his three day total to 7-under 209. He is currently eight shots off the leader group at the USD 2 million event with one round to play.

Ajeetesh's round comprised of five birdies in all, but three bogeys in between set him back from a stronger finish on the moving day.
