Randhawa, Himmat best Indians on Day 1 in Singapore Open

Singapore, Nov 8:
Jyoti Randhawa and Himmat Rai were the best-placed Indians on the weather-hit opening day of the Barclays Singapore Open at the challenging Serapong Golf Course here.
The duo shot two-under 69 each and were three behind the clubhouse leader, the 41-year-old Dane Thomas Bjorn, who has 13 wins but none in Asia.
With rain and thunderstorm almost a part of folklore at the Singapore Open, it was no different on Day 1 as play abandoned with the entire second half of the field yet to finish their rounds.
Behind Bjorn were Chinnarat Phadungsil of Thailand, Simon Khan of England and Spaniard Pablo Martin, all of whom shot 67.(PTI)
