Indian golfer Trishul Chinnappa staged a remarkable recovery to move into the top 10 at the USD 160,000 AM Green IGPL Morocco Rising Stars 2026.
Chinnappa was tied eighth with three other Indians - Sudhir Sharma, Raghav Chugh, and Syed Saqib Ahmed - who were three shots behind the leader Hoho Yue of Hong Kong.
The four Indians, all prominent players on the AM Green IGPL Tour, are still searching for their maiden success on the AM Green IGPL and the ADT Tours.
Chinnappa had a patchy start with three bogeys against two birdies on the front nine, but flourished as he birdied five times in the last six holes, including four in a row from the 13th.
Sharma had a fine start from the 10th as he eagled Par-5 14th and birdied the 17th to turn in 3-under, while Saqib had a great back nine with three birdies and no bogeys.
Chugh had five birdies against two bogeys, and two other Indians, Samarth Dwivedi and Shaurya Bhattacharya, were also inside Top-20 at Tied-17th with cards of 2-under 70 each.
