Re-Birth Of An Ancient Golfing Nation
Day Two at the Sri Lanka Open Golf at RCGC - Excitement Galore
Prabagaran Leads Day 2 in Solar
Therm Sri Lanka Open
Defending Champion K. Prabagaran, maintained his consistency scoring another 4-under par in the second round of the Solar Therm Sri Lanka Open 2014, played at the Royal Colombo Golf Club Course in Colombo. Prabagaran joint leader of four after round one, placed himself at the top of the standings on eight under par, one stroke ahead of Mithun Perera and M. Dharma of India tied in second place on seven under par.
Anura Rohana returned another two under to be placed in 4th
place on 4 under par. Zen Dharmaratne sponsored by CML MTD Walkers Group scored
two under to be placed in 5th on 3 under par, five strokes off the
lead.
Kushal Johnpillai, the leading Amateur in the ‘Open’ won the
UTE CAT Challenge Trophy 2015, comfortably from Prashan Peiris by nine strokes
in the Gross event while Kushal completed a double victory by winning the Nett event too
from Kris Krishnarajah, who edged out Prashan for the Runner-up Prize on a count
back. Well done Mr. Johnpillai! You're good enough to be with the pros.
The overnight leader seems to be buckling under the pressure of his age-related declining stamina and focus; he started the game with an-out-of-the-world second shot from behind a cluster of trees to land by the pin. There was no line of play and the veteran executed a masterpiece draw shot.
The Cut-off for the Solar Therm Sri Lanka Open was applied
at 162 and 40 players advanced in to the last two rounds.
