HT Image Amandeep, who had a superb 8-under 64 in the opening round, added a 72 in round two to make the cut along with four other Indians. The next best Indian was Hitaashee Bakshi at 6-under and in T-32 place. Diksha Dagar , Tvesa Malik and Sneha Singh also fought hard to make the cut on the line at T-61.

In second spot was Esme Hamilton, the rookie Englishwoman teeing up in only her sixth LET event. She replicated her first round 66 to remain in contention. Amandeep had a rough day as she was 2-over through 16 holes with one birdie and three bogeys before she rallied with birdies on the last two holes. Diksha finished earliest among the Indians with 71 that had four birdies and three bogeys. Later, Hitaashee had a steady 2-under 70 with four birdies and two bogeys on day two.

Solid starts for Lauren Walsh and Sara Byrne in Czech Ladies Open
Lauren Walsh and Sara Byrne both made solid starts to Tipsport Czech Ladies Open where Amandeep Drall leads the way after an opening round 64. Walsh was best of the Irish with three birdies on her way to a three-under par 69 and five shots off the clubhouse lead. She is a shot better off than compatriot Byrne, who shared her four bogeys evenly across the front and back nine as well as half a dozen birdies, including at the last. Canice Screene sits on one-over after a 73, while Olivia Mehaffey is on three-over par after a double-bogey start to her round that also included three bogeys. Drall sits top of the pile at Royal Beroun Golf Club for her best ever round on the Ladies European Tour. On a Friday full of birdies, Drall, playing in only her second LET event of the season, read the low-scoring script carding nine birdies and dropping just one shot in the Czech Republic. "I'm very happy," the Indian said. "Especially after last week [missing the cut in Belgium]. "Line reading was definitely the difference. I hit the ball well last week but I couldn't read the lines at all. I was so confused on the green. But coming into this week, I focused a lot on my putting. I concentrated on my stroke and my line." The scorecard included four birdies in a row at the 13th, 14th, 15th and 16th to give the 32-year-old a one-shot lead.
