DP World India Championship: Three-way tie at top as Chouhan leads Indian challenge

DP World India Championship: Three-way tie at top as Chouhan leads Indian challenge

As the DP World India Championship resumed on Friday, nearly five storm-riddled hours delayed the opening day's progress. Angel Hidalgo, Joost Luiten, and Adrian Meronk were tied atop a crowded leaderboard, while Indian golfer Om Prakash Chouhan stood at tied 17th place. The top three shared a common goal of making the cut, which would be determined later that afternoon.

The second round commenced on Saturday with a field still grappling with the first round's challenges. Luiten led the group in total holes played, completing 68 and 68, while Meronk and Hidalgo finished 31 holes each. Luiten's round saw a hat-trick of birdies on the 13th, 18th, and second holes before a double bogey on the eighth hole. Despite this, he rebounded with a birdie on the ninth.
