Joaquin Niemann's performance in the second round of the International Series India included an eagle and two birdies with no bogeys (4-under). The Chilean is two shots ahead of the two players tied for second place.
Niemann said (via the official Asian Tour website):
"You know, it’s a tough course. You gotta hit your tee shots, you gotta hit your lines. And, you know, anything can happen until the last fall. So yeah, I mean, I am just happy to be in this good situation going into the weekend. And there is a lot of good golf to play."
After the second round, the event made the cut. LIV Golfers Harold Varner III, Andy Ogletree, Paul Casey and Cale Surratt missed the cut, as did reserve player John Catlin.
