What you need to know:
- It was the 55 years old Dismas Indiza, who came closer after firing one under par 70 which however could only give him a total of two over 144, same as in last year’s tournament
- Besides Indiza, other players who came closer to making the level par cut were Njoroge Kibugu who however shot 74 in the second round after dropping a number of shots to finish on 145 having played level par 71 in the opening round
- On the other hand, Kenya’s top amateur Michael Karanga also played well in the second round, where he fired level par 71, but it was an improvement coming rather late
Unlike last year where home player Mutahi Kibugu fought his way to the last day of the Magical Kenya Open, none of the nine local pros and four amateurs were able to make the level par second round cut.
In fact, it was the 55 years old Dismas Indiza, who came closer after firing one under par 70 which however could only give him a total of two over 144, same as in last year’s tournament.
