East Point Golf Club: Chandigarh’s Angad Cheema, the runner-up in Hyderabad last week, continued his rich vein of form by firing a personal best score of 10-under 61 to rise to the top in Round Two of the Vizag Open 2024 being played at the East Point Golf Club (EPGC) here on Thursday. Angad (69-61), currently fourth on the PGTI Ranking with six top-10s in the season so far, had a tournament tally of 12-under 130 at the halfway stage that gave him an imposing four-shot lead. Patna’s Aman Raj (66-68) was placed second at eight-under 134 following his second round of 68.
Bengaluru’s Aryan Roopa Anand (67-68) was a further shot back in third place. The cut was declared at one-over 143. Fifty-seven professionals made the cut. Angad Cheema, searching for his second PGTI title and looking to end an 11-year win drought, surged 12 spots from his overnight tied 13th thanks to a phenomenal 61, the week’s lowest round so far, that was punctuated by an eagle and eight birdies.
Cheema, who started from the 10th hole, kept firing his iron and wedge shots close to the flags with pin-point precision on Thursday as his eagle putt and three other birdie putts were tap-ins The 34-year-old also landed it within six to eight feet on four other occasions where he converted those putts for birdies.
