Golf: Bhatia Misses Cut As Higgo Takes Narrow Lead At Sanderson Farms
South African Garrick Higgo: Akshay Bhatia’s week at the Sanderson Farms Championship came to an early end as he failed to advance past the halfway stage at the Country Club of Jackson. The 22-year-old followed his opening even-par 72 with a 1-over 73 in the second round, finishing at 1-over 145 for 36 holes — five shots adrift of the cut line set at 4-under.
Starting his second round on the 10th tee, Bhatia dropped shots on the 14th and 16th but recovered with birdies on the 3rd and 5th. However, a closing bogey on the 8th, his penultimate hole, dashed hopes of a weekend appearance. He will look to bounce back quickly as the PGA TOUR’s fall schedule continues.
At the top of the leaderboard, South African Garrick Higgo surged ahead with rounds of 65 and 66 to reach 13-under. His second day included a composed back nine highlighted by four birdies, marking an impressive showing in his comeback season following hip surgery.
