So I notice not all of India turned up despite the free tickets ...: Which is probably a good thing. It would be a tight squeeze out here with 1.1 billion souls around.
Well they could have been cheering on their local hero from Delhi ...: Indeed. Little Jyoti Randhawa played a stellar round, with an eagle on the last to take a two-shot cushion over Richard Finch and red-hot Irishman Damien McGrane.
7-under is pretty a hot start for Jyoti ...: Yes, it's a shame though he might be better known in Europe, where he had four Top 10s last year, than he is in his native land.
Yeah, but the world knows Jyoti. He's No. 85 in the world now ...: And he's got a bit of star power. He's married to the Bollywood actress Chitrangada Singh, the sister of fella India pro Digvijay Singh, and you don't usually pull like that in India unless you're a cricketer.
I like his approach ... tee it high and let it fly ...: Me too. Hey, if he keeps this up, maybe they might get a couple thousand out here for the weekend to watch the local boy.
Ernie Els must be happy all 1.1 billion Indians didn't turn up ...: Yes. His plus-three round wasn't much to look at, especially as the Big Easy was the Big Draw here at the inaugural Indian Masters. Now Ernie needs a great round just to stick around in India for the weekend.
I bet he's got a severe case of Delhi belly right now ...: I bet he has. Speaking of which, I fancy a curry ... What are we having?
I'll take whatever Jyoti Randhawa's cooking up any day ...
