Close on the heels of Rahil Gangjee’s achievement last weekend in China, another Indian is on the verge of winning his first Asian Tour title with Amandeep Johl opening up a three-shot lead after the third round to stay firmly on course for a win at the $275,000 Macau Open today. Johl fired a four-under-par 67 at the Macau Golf and Country Club for a three-day total of 198 to finish clear of American Jason Knutzon, who returned a 68, according to reports reaching here. Lurking four shots back on 202 are Irish star Padraig Harrington, Taiwanese veteran Chen Tze-chung, who carded a superb round of 62, and last year’s runner-up Scott Barr of Australia.
