This is where their luck ran out as Sterling Swingers stepped on the gas to win the final three games in a row.

The opening match of the day witnessed a whitewash. Baale Golf won all seven of their games against Bharat Strikers. This earned Baale Golf 14 crucial points while Bharat Strikers became the only team this season not to open their account in a match.

The second match of the day, between Sudhir Power and Tee Birds, began with a win for Sudhir Power in the opening game. The second game was tied, but Sudhir Power registered a win in the third to go two up with four to play.

As a casual follower, I find the scoring system a bit confusing. Can someone explain how the points are awarded per game vs. per match? Otherwise, sounds like a fantastic day of sport.

Tough luck for Bharat Strikers, a whitewash is hard to take. But kudos to Baale Golf for a flawless performance. That's the spirit of the game – sometimes you win big, sometimes you learn. On to the next one!

The Sudhir Power vs Tee Birds match must have been a nail-biter! Ending in a tie shows how evenly matched they were. Golf is really growing in popularity among professionals in India. More coverage like this, please!

While it's great to see corporate teams and foundations participating, I wish there was more accessible golf for the common public. DGC is iconic, but these events feel a bit exclusive. Just a thought.

Solid performance by Bajaj Foundation. Starting with a hat-trick really sets the tone. The league format makes every point crucial. Good to see Indian corporate culture embracing competitive golf.
