On a day where dense fog delayed the start by two hours and cold winds tested the golfers’ nerves, Aryan added another 2-over 74 for a two-round total of 4-over 148 to lead by three shots from Arjun Rana of Gurgaon, Kayla, despite a forgivable round of 11-over, was leading by six strokes from Serena Vikram Singh of Noida.
Nisha Patel of Mumbai shot the day’s best of 2-under 70 to lead in the Girls 13-14 category with a 36-hole total of 1-under 143. Overnight leader Ragini Navet trailed by seven shots. Nisha's citymate Arman Gawde had shot a similar round, however, his entire group being penalised for slow play, he had to sign for a 1-under par 71 card and led in the Boys' 10 category.
