Jakarta, 2 November. The third round of the BNI Indonesian Masters 2024 was really exciting, marked by Bubba Watson’s hole in one on hole 11. The players were fighting to try to overtake Richard T. Lee’s dominance until the third round. Even though the tournament was stopped due to heavy rain and lightning, it did not reduce the tension of the match.
Richard T. Lee (CAN) is still too tough for his competitors in the 3rd round of the BNI Indonesian Master 2024. Playing calmly, he got 6 birdies without a boogie in this round. He didn’t want to make the same mistake as yesterday when he got a boogie on hole 17 and Double Boogie on hole 18. Even this time he managed to get a positive score with birdies on both holes. With this result, he is facing the final tomorrow with a total of 21 under par points, beating 6 strokes from Ahmad Baig (PAK), who is in second place on the BNI Indonesian Masters 2024 leaderboard. “I’m just trying to keep doing what I am doing right now. I think my putter is very hot this week, so let’s see tomorrow.” Baig said.
Golfers such as Bubba Watson (USA) , Kieran Vincent (ZIM) and John Catlin (USA) are still trying to put pressure on Richard T. Lee, which makes tomorrow’s final round still open to many players taking the top spot on the leaderboard on the final day. John Catlin (USA) is the top leader of the Asian Tour Order of Merit. If he wins the BNI Indonesian Masters 2024 tournament, it will be difficult for him to be chased by Peter Uihlein (USA) and Ben Campbell (AUS) who are in second and third place.
Bubba Watson shows his class today, this 45-year-old player has won “The Master” tournament twice in 2012 and 2014. This has proven that he is a very special golf player. This left-handed player is always followed by spectators and fans from round 1 of the BNI Indonesian Masters 2024. Bubba, as he is known, managed to get 3 birdies in his first 9 holes and then got an eagle with a hole in one on the 11th hole, making him one of the contenders to become champion in the final round tomorrow. He played 7 under par by collecting 5 birdies and 1 eagle in this round, so he collected a total of 14 under par from the 3 rounds that have been played.
What’s more interesting is that after Bubba got a hole in one on hole 11, behind him Phachara Khongwatmai from Thailand also got a hole in one on the same hole in sequence. This incident is very rare in international tournaments. Especially the International Series class.
