Gangjee was in tied sixth at six-under 138 along with local lads Yuvraj Singh Sandhu, Angad Cheema and Brashwarpal Singh.<\/p>\n<p>Sudhir Sharma of Greater Noida made a hole-in-one on the 14th during his round of 69 that placed him tied 13th at four-under 140. Interestingly, no one has so far fired a hole-in-one on the 11th where the prize is a car, the Maruti Jimny.<\/p>\n<p>Indian golf legend and tournament host Jeev Milkha Singh (72-70), playing at his home course, posted a 70 on day two to rise 19 spots to tied 28th at two-under 142. Jeev thus made the cut for the first time at his event after missing out in the previous five editions.<\/p>\n<p>The cut was declared at even-par 144. Fifty-six professionals and two amateurs made it to the money rounds.<\/p>\n<p>With his driving and putting not clicking, Jamal Hossain only managed two birdies and a bogey till the 10th hole. He then had a late surge with birdies on the 13th, 16th and 18th that helped him retain his top spot on the leaderboard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy iron-play and chipping saved the day for me. Those were the only aspects of my game that stood out today. Making 31 putts was a little disappointing but I managed to focus hard enough towards the end of my round to make those much-needed birdies to stay ahead,\u201d said Jamal, who is very keen to win in Chandigarh after having come close to victory at the venue on multiple occasions in the past.<\/p>\n<p>TATA Steel PGTI Ranking leader Om Prakash Chouhan (75) was tied 49th at even-par 144.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Round 2 Leaderboard:<\/p>\n<p>133: Jamal Hossain (65-68)<\/p>\n<p>134: Sachin Baisoya (66-68)<\/p>\n<p>135: Chandarjeet Yadav (68-67)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chandigarh: Jamal Hossain of Bangladesh didn\u2019t have the best of days but still managed to hold on to his overnight lead with a resolute four-under 68 in round two of the INR 1.5 crore Jeev Milkha Singh Invitational 2023 presented by TAKE Sports being played at the Chandigarh Golf Club.
