Indian Golfer Shubhankar Sharma Ends Four-Missed-Cut Streak with Hole-in-One at Nexo Championship Shubhankar Sharma secured his place in the weekend rounds of the Nexo Championship in Scotland after ending a streak of four missed cuts. The Indian golfer made a dramatic hole-in-one on the sixth hole during his second round, which became the highlight of his performance. Sharma, competing at Trump International Golf Links, opened with a 73 on Thursday and followed it with a 72 in the second round, finishing at one-over 145 after 36 holes. This score placed him tied 22nd and comfortably within the cut line. The other Indian in the field, Yuvraj Sandhu, finished with a 75-79 score and missed the cut. Sharma’s second round began with a birdie on the first hole, followed by a bogey at the fifth. The standout moment came at the par-three sixth hole, where he holed his tee shot for an ace. He added birdies at the 12th and 13th holes but faced bogeys at the ninth, 11th, 15th, and 16th. His final round score of 72 brought him to level par. The hole-in-one was significant for Sharma, who had struggled with missed cuts on the DP World Tour. The weekend appearance provides him an opportunity to regain momentum and climb the leaderboard. The tournament’s leaderboard featured several top performers. England’s Matthew Southgate led the field after a second consecutive two-under 70, finishing at four-under par. Southgate, who started the day three shots behind, navigated the conditions at Trump International Golf Links with consistency. He made a birdie at the 17th hole and dropped his only shot of the day at the sixth. A chip-in eagle at the seventh hole was pivotal in securing his position at the top.#dp_world_tour #shubhankar_sharma #nexo_championship #trump_international_golf_links #matthew_southgate
