Seasoned Indian golfer Jeev Milkha Singh hopped back into contention for a top-10 finish after a brilliant four-under 68 in the penultimate round gave him a share of the 15th spot in the Dubai World Championship.

The Chandigarh golfer,who had slipped to tied 24th yesterday,is six-under 210 after three rounds at the Earth Course of Jumeirah Golf Estates.

The opening hole bogey was one of the just two blots on his card as he went on a birdie-firing spree in the front nine,picking up four between the second and ninth hole,to make the turn three-under.
