Seoul [South Korea], May 10 : Diksha Dagar and Pranavi Urs faced contrasting fortunes, but both ended at Tied-32nd after two rounds at the Aramco Korea Championship at the New Korea Country Club, As Diksha rallied from a disappointing front nine of 3-over, Pranavi dropped three shots on her second nine, which was the front side of the course. Diksha carded 2-over 74 and Pranavi was 3-over 75 and both are now 3-over 147 for two rounds, as per a release from Korea Championship.

Meanwhile, Avani Prashanth (79-73) despite a good second round failed to make the cut and also missing out was Tvesa Malik (79-76).

In the Individual event, defending champion and home favourite Hyo Joo Kim leads Lee-Anne Pace by one-shot on home soil on a score of four-under par. The South Korea had a solid day in wet weather carding a second consecutive round of 70 (-2).

With Lee Ann Pace solo second on three-under par, Ecuador's Daniela Darquea and France's Perrine Delacour - a recent winner at the Investec SA Women's Open - share third on two-under par.

In the team competition, Team Kouskova win by one shot and the team included Kouskova, Lee-Anne Pace, Brianna Navarrosa and Patricia Isabel Schmidt. They were 21-under and one shot clear of Team Delacour, which had Delacour, Maha Haddioui, Eleanor Givens and Polly Mack.

Team Diksha was seventh and Team Pranavi, which included Avani, was T-11. Tvesa Malik, part Team Pia Babnik, was T-24.

Diksha had three bogeys on the front nine, but she recovered well on the back nine with one eight pars and one birdie for a 2-over card. Pranavi was even par for the back nine after starting from the 10th, but she gave away three bogeys on her second nine, which was the front side of the course.

Seven players share fifth on one-under par, a group which includes Switzerland's Chiara Tamburlini, Norway's Dorthea Forbrigd, Sweden's Johanna Wrigley, Australia's Kelsey Bennett plus German trio Schmidt, Polly Mack and Chiara Noja.
