Scot Dunn crashes in Indian Open second round


NOT SO SIMPLE FOR SIMON
SECOND TIME ROUND


Dubai-based Scot Simon Dunn crashed out of contention for the Indian Open championship with a second-round 77 at Delhi Golf Club.
Dunn, 26, pictured right, had shared the overnight lead with Indian golf hero Vijay Kumar on six-under-par 66 but it was not quite so simple for Simon on the second day.
His 36-hole tally of one-under-par 143 puts him nine shots behind halfway Kumar (68-134) and another Indian, greenkeeper’s son S S P Chowrasia (69-65).
England's Simon Dyson and Australian Unho Park were both a shot off the pace on 135 as darkness fell with 24 players still to complete their second rounds. They included former Scottish amateur champion Barry Hume from Glasgow.
Hume later finished with a 76 for a three-over-par total of 147 and missed the cut.
Fellow Scot Andrew Coltart also bowed out of the tournament on 147 after a 73.
And a third Scot to miss the cut was Ross Bain with a pair of 74s for 148.
Leading second-round totals (24 players to complete second rounds).
