Amateurs saanvi

Pro Golf Tour: Two promising amateurs, Mannat Brar and Saanvi Somu, were hot on the heels of Vidhatri Urs, who is playing only her third event as a professional, in the ninth leg of the Women’s Pro Golf Tour at the Clover Greens. Vidhatri shot 2-under 69 after a first-round 68 to get to 5-under 137 and one clear of amateur Saanvi Somu, who repeated her first-round score of 69 to get to 4-under 138.

Mannat Brar, who has been a teammate of both the leaders on India teams at international amateur events, also shot 69 like Vidhatri and Saanvi. Mannat (70-69) is third at 3-under 139.

Vidhatri had a birdie-bogey sequence on two occasions, first on the third and fourth and then seventh and eighth to turn in even par. On the back nine, she birdied the tenth and the 16th and there were no bogeys. Saanvi played steady with three birdies and one bogey, and Mannat also had the same.
