Digboi Golf Links: Bangladeshi golfer Jamal Hossain produced a tournament-low score of seven-under 65 to rise into the lead at a total of 11-under 133 in Round Two of the Servo Masters 2024 being played at the Digboi Golf Links here on Thursday. The Gurugram-based Shivendra Singh Sisodia shot a 66 to end the day in second position at nine-under 135. Karnal’s Mani Ram and Hyderabad’s Milind Soni were placed tied third at eight-under 136.

The overnight leader Amardeep Malik, former champion Honey Baisoya, Olympian Udayan Mane, C. Muniyappa, Vikrant Chopra, and Divyansh Dubey were all tied in fifth place at six-under 138. Deven Bhumij was the only Digboi-based professional to make the cut as he was placed tied 27th at one-under 143. The cut was applied at three-over 147 with 53 professionals making the cut.

The 39-year-old Jamal Hossain (68-65), a four-time winner on the PGTI, began the day one shot off the lead in tied second. Hossain had a forgettable start as he bogeyed the first hole. He then began finding his touch when he drove the green on the Par-4 third hole to score his first birdie of the day. Hossain thereafter pulled out some great iron and wedge shots to regularly land it close to the pins to pick up seven more birdies. His longest conversion of the day was a 12-footer for birdie on the 15th.
