Jakarta, Dec 5 (IANS)
Indian golfers Jyoti Randhawa and Anirban Lahiri finished tied 22nd and 28th after a rain-curtailed second round of the $750,000 BANK BRI Indonesia Open at the par-72 Damai Indah Golf, PIK Course on Friday.
While the 2002 Asian Tour No.1 Randhawa scored four-under 68 to take his total to 139, Anirban sizzled with a six-under 66 to have a total of 140 as in-form Thanyakon Khrongpha of Thailand fired a superb eight-under 63 to seize the clubhouse lead.
Overnight joint leader Padraig Harrington's charge was stopped by bad weather after he negotiated his way in 12-under through 12 holes. The Irishman and 66 other players will resume play at 6.30 a.m. on Saturday.
The slightly-built Thai Khrongpha produced a near perfect card in the calm morning conditions which included nine birdies before stumbling to a lone bogey on his last hole to settle for a 12-under-par 130 total.
Among the players who finished their rounds include Asian Tour rookie Nathan Holman of Australia, who was two shots back after matching Thanyakon's efforts of 63, while Scott Hend and Jarin Todd of the United States shot 64 for a total of 133.
"Everything in my game was good especially my ball striking. I hit a lot of shots for close range birdies. The longest birdie of the day was on the seventh hole from 30 feet," said the 24-year-old Thanyakon.
"I enjoyed a good run after turning professional in 2010 but after that I didn't do too well because I had no confidence in my swing. Mentally I was not strong enough. Then last year, I worked with Andrew and I've really improved since then," he explained.
Harrington, a three-time Major winner, was five-under at the turn courtesy of an opening eagle which he holed from 15 feet. He marked his card with another bogey and birdie before play was abandoned.
Big-hitting Hend, who won his first Asian Tour title on this course in 2008, eagled the 13th hole from eight feet to charge into contention.
Other Indians in the fray, Chiragh Kumar, Rahil Gangjee and Gaganjeet Bhullar also didn't complete the round due to inclement weather.
Himmat Rai continued to struggle and came up with a score of one-over 73 to share 99th position with six others.
