Shubhankar Sharma Slips to Tied-26th at Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed

India's Shubhankar Sharma shot a one-under 71 in the third round of the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed tournament, slipping to Tied-26th. While Sharma initially showed promise, a triple bogey on the Par-4 13th hole hindered his performance. Sweden's Sebastian Söderberg leads the tournament at 21-under-par.

India's Shubhankar Sharma experienced a challenging third round at the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed golf tournament, shooting a one-under 71 that resulted in his drop to Tied-26th on the leaderboard.

Sharma, who impressed with scores of 69-69 in his initial rounds, began promisingly with three-under through the first eight holes, recording four birdies against one bogey.

However, trouble struck on the Par-4 13th, as he found water off the tee and later navigated deep rough, culminating in a triple bogey. A birdie on the subsequent Par-3 14th offered minor respite but couldn't halt his fall down the standings.

Out in front, Sweden's Sebastian Söderberg maintained his stellar form, firing a six-under 66 round to extend his lead. Söderberg, who has led since the first round, delivered back-to-back birdies on holes two and three and went four-under by the turn.

Back-to-back birdies on holes 12 and 13 contributed to his commanding 21-under-par score, despite a lone bogey on the 14th. His eight-shot lead over Scotland's Calum Hill, who is at 13-under after a strong five-under 67 round, remains secure.

Sharing third place are Spain's Santiago Tarrio, England's Alice Hewson, and Sweden's Alexander Björk, each at 12-under-par.

The Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed, co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and Ladies European Tour, showcases 78 men and 78 women competing on the same course for a single prize fund and trophy.
