After Narbir Kahlon and Arun Talwar's 4&2 win, it was left to Ravibir Singh and GS Bakshi to ensure they got the extra half point with a comeback tie. Punjab Aces have not yet hit top gear as they missed a few chances to climb the leaderboard further. Mivaan Singh and Rao Birender Sidhu won their singles games and when Balpreet Ghuman-Gursharan Grewal won 6&5, it seemed like the Aces would post a big haul on the day.

Mehar Atwal and Varun Rao's 3&2 win got the match win for the Aces. In the last match of the day, Soaring Eagles made Golf Masters sweat to get their first win of the season but could only halve it. Amandeep Singh Brar and Navjot Mann split the singles games, with Jaswant Khara & Gurpreet Virk putting the Masters a step forward. In a symmetrical match scorecard, the first two fourballs were won by the Masters, the middle one was tied and the Eagles took the final two to round out a day of many close games and cheers on the greens. The matches will now resume on October 7 after a three-day break and go on till October 10. After that, action will resume on October 14 and the round robin stage of three groups will conclude on October 16, when the names of the teams that will surge ahead in the knockout stage will be declared....
