By IANS News May 25, 2024 • 11:18 AM View: 645

Indian American Akshay Bhatia: Korea’s Sungjae Im mastered the winds and wielded a hot putter as a workman-like 6-under 64 propelled him into title contention at the Charles Schwab Challenge on Friday.

Chasing a third PGA TOUR victory, the 26-year-old Im rolled in monster putts of 44 feet and 25 feet for two of his seven birdies at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas as he ended the second round in tied fourth place and four back of leader, Davis Riley.

Indian American Akshay Bhatia (73-72) will miss the cut, while Aaron Rai of England squeezed in T-60 with 71-71.
