Ridhima Dilawari Leads with Stellar Performance in Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour

Ridhima Dilawari, making a strong comeback, shot an impressive round with seven birdies to claim a four-shot lead in the Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour's 10th leg at the close of Thursday's play.

Despite the ups and downs marked by three bogeys and a double bogey, Ridhima managed a 2-under 70 to lead into the final round. She was in third place after the opening round but started brilliantly in the second, being three under after the first five holes. Her journey saw setbacks over the next holes with consecutive bogeys on the sixth and seventh and a double bogey on the ninth.

Her performance improved with birdies on the 10th, 12th, 14th, and 16th holes, concluding her round with pars on the final holes. Conversely, previous leader Neha Tripathi slipped after struggling with one birdie, four bogeys, and a double bogey, sharing second place with Amandeep Drall at 2-over 146. The competition remains fierce as players head into the final round.
