LAIRD STILL ON COURSE TO BEAT HALFWAY
CUT IN WET NZ PGA
Scot Martin Laird still has eight holes of his second round to complete at the end of a rain-disrupted second day in the New Zealand PGA championship at Clearwater Resort, Christchurch.
The former Scottish youths amateur champion from Glasgow, who had a one-under-par in the first round, started at the 10th in his second and double-bogeyed the 12th. He bounced back with birdies at the 13th and 17th before dropping a shot at the 18th to cover his first nine holes in one-over-par 37.
Laird, pictured right, then got back to level par for the day and one under for the tournament with a birdie at the first before the organisers decided to end play for the day as the saturated greens began to flood.
Four players are sharing the lead at seven under par for the tournament but only one of them has completed 36 holes.
The projected cut at the halfway stage is one-over-par 145.
