As the sun went down behind the famous Delhi Golf Club, round 3 of the DP World India Championship 2025 brought excitement, skill, and a bit of magic. The $4 million tournament, a major event for golf in India, saw many changes in the leaderboard as players fought for the top spot on Sunday.

Keita Nakajima Takes Command

Keita Nakajima from Japan showed incredible calm and skill, finishing his round with no bogeys and a score of 65, bringing his total to 17-under-par. His game was perfect; he hit fairways well, made it to the greens as needed, and made crucial putts without missing. Nakajima now has a lead of two shots going into the final round, ready to make history.

Fleetwood’s Rollercoaster

Tommy Fleetwood, who was in the lead after Round 2, found it hard to keep up his strong play. A couple of bad drives and missed chances caused him to fall behind Nakajima. However, he showed determination, getting back on track from difficult spots and making important pars to keep himself in the race. Sunday is set to be an exciting battle between Fleetwood’s style and Nakajima’s precision.

Lowry Lurks

Shane Lowry stayed quietly in the race. Playing alongside Nakajima, the Irish golfer had a smooth round that kept him in striking distance. Known for his toughness in the final rounds, Lowry could be the underdog to keep an eye on.

Dhruv Sheoran Shines

Among the Indian players, Dhruv Sheoran stood out as a superstar. With a strong score of 8-under-par, he is tied for 25th place, a proud moment for fans of Indian golf and a sign of the great talent coming up in the country.

McIlroy’s Late Charge

Rory McIlroy, a favourite among fans, bounced back after a slow start to get back into the race. His strong finish on the back nine reminded everyone why he has won four major championships. If he finds his groove early on Sunday, expect an exciting performance.

What’s at Stake

With a prize of $4 million and the honour of winning India’s top DP World Tour event, round 4 will be a challenge of confidence, planning, and endurance. The Delhi Golf Club, with its narrow tree-lined paths, won’t allow anything short of excellence.

Whether Nakajima can hold on, Fleetwood can make a comeback, or a surprise player emerges, Sunday is sure to offer a thrilling conclusion that the world will watch.
