The cutthroat world of golf. One Indian rises, another falls. Imagine playing a game where one stroke can be the difference between glory and despair. Welcome to the highstakes world of professional golf where Vir Alawat and Schubankar Sharma found themselves on opposite sides of the cutline at the Danish Golf Championship in Copenhagen. Alawat’s gritty comeback. Ver Alawat’s second round performance at the Forso Golf Club was a masterclass in resilience. Starting the day with a mountain to climb after an opening two over 73, Alawat 73 to68 not only scaled the peak but secured a spot in the weekend action on the DP World Tour, finishing at one under and tied for 45th after 36 holes. But here’s where it gets interesting. Alawat’s journey wasn’t without its hurdles. A double bogey on the par413th threatened to derail his campaign. However, in a stunning display of mental toughness, he rebounded with five birdies in six holes starting from the 16th. Consecutive birdies on the 16th and 17th steadied the ship while three straight birdies on the front nine propelled him safely inside the cut mark. A crucial birdie on the par 4/8 after a brief wobble with a bogey on the par 3 fifth sealed his passage into the weekend. Sharma’s struggles continue. In stark contrast, Schubanker Sharma’s woes persisted with even par scores of 71 to 71, leaving him a single stroke shy of the cut set at one under. This continues his lean run since March, begging the question, “What does Sharma need to do to break this cycle of form?” Share your thoughts in the comments below. Leadership contention. At the pinnacle of the leaderboard, Denmark’s Raasmus Hogard sent the home crowd into raptures with a scorching 7under 64, catapulting him to a 12under overall, 66 to 64, and a two-shot lead at the halfway mark. His round was highlighted by an eagle on the 18th and a blistering five birdies and six holes on the front nine with only a lone bogey on the eighth preventing a perfect run. England’s Marco Penge, the overnight leader, remained in the hunt with a 68 featuring six birdies and three bogeies to sit at 10 under in second place. The weekend awaits. With two rounds remaining, Pogar is poised for another DP World Tour victory. While Alawat will look to ascend the leaderboard, can Alawat continue his momentum or will Hogar’s home advantage prove too strong? Join the conversation. But do you think Alawat’s comeback sets him up for a strong finish? What advice would you give Chararma to overcome his current form dip? Is Hogar unstoppable on home soil?
