āI started really well and that set the tone for the rest of the day. My ball striking was right up there as I hit almost all greens in regulation and found all fairways. The putting was also sharp,ā Chikka said after the end of the day, reported PTI.
āI will take seven birdies and a bogey on this golf course any day. This is my best round at this course and almost feels like a course record. Iāve been in good touch since late last year and that helped my confidence coming into this tournament. I just feel good about all aspects of my game at the moment.ā
