Ahlawat was delighted with the 7-mine of 63, which is the best of the world tour of the DP.
“My game had been solid since the start of the week, even in the training round. I was hitting the ball very well. So I knew that the game was pretty good. But in the last tournaments, I was struggling a little with my short match, “said Ahlawat.
“This week, even the short match felt solid. However, during the first round, I did not draw a lot of putts. I had trouble reading the real lines.
“But today (in the second round), I hit the ball very well and I hit the shots at a 10 -foot circle several times. The good thing was that I was able to draw putts, that’s what helped me go out.
“I knew I needed a low round to cut. In my mind, the cup went to three sous, so I knew that I should take at least one round of six sous to have a chance to cut. I feel confident in the game. The shot of the ball is good and I give myself a lot of chances of Birdie, so that’s good, “he added.
