Shubhankar Sharma Makes Cut at Volvo China Open Despite Second-Round Challenges

Indian golfer Shubhankar Sharma displayed resilience on Friday, making the cut at the Volvo China Open in Beijing despite a challenging second round. The 27-year-old carded a one-over 73, bringing his total score to five-under for 36 holes.

Sharma's round started promisingly with a birdie on the ninth hole. However, he encountered setbacks on the back nine, dropping shots on the 12th and 14th holes. Despite these setbacks, Sharma remained composed and finished the day in a tie for 32nd place.

Fellow Indian golfer Om Prakash, who had a promising start with a 70 on the first day, faltered in the second round. He carded a two-over 75, missing the cut by a narrow margin. Prakash's round was marred by a double bogey, two bogeys, and two birdies.

At the top of the leaderboard, Sebastian Soderberg continued his impressive form. The Swede shot a blistering seven-under 65, propelled by six birdies on the back nine. Soderberg now holds a commanding three-shot lead over England's Paul Warring, who is at 13-under. Italian Guido Migliozzi is in third place at 12-under.

Sharma's performance at the Volvo China Open is a testament to his determination and skill. Despite facing challenges, he managed to make the cut and remains in contention for a top finish. The tournament concludes on Sunday, and Sharma will be hoping to continue his strong play and secure a podium spot.
