Then on the second day, Kevin was unlucky because he closed the second day with a 6 overpar, so he had to drop to second place below Sandro Bernad, who got an even par . Meanwhile, Naraajie Emerald is in third place, having played even par for two consecutive days. So the three players played in one group in the final round.

After that, I continued to implement my strategy to play safe until the last hole,” said Naraajie.
