While Parkha continues to predominate with commendable scores, her adversaries are also managing to look cardinal and eminent with noteworthy golfing scores. And in this championship, Parkha leads the golfing race with a gross score of 75, her nearest combatant Rimsha Ijaz is placed at a score of gross 77. Another proficient one Zahida Durrani is at gross 79 and Suneya Osama and Ghazala Yasmin are together at gross 80.
As for the grand fight going on in amateur section, it is so delightful to see young ones like Damil and Zubair still in their teens feature as the dexterous and befitting ones in this national level golf event. On the second day of this championship eighteen year old Damil extended his caliber loaded display of the first round with another proficiency filled exhibition in the second round. With a gross 70 on the first day followed by a par 72 on the second day, Damil ends up the two rounds with a stirring aggregate score of 142, two under par and looks all charged up for a massive charge to victory on the final day on Sunday.
His contender M.Zubair is also placed at the two rounds aggregate score of 142 and though Zubair has manifested excellence most of the time, he did fall from grace on three holes which he double bogeyed. Otherwise in the course of the round on Saturday, he scored birdies on seven holes, the 1st, 3rd, 4th, 8th, 9th, 11th and 13th and yet ended up with a score of gross 73, his birdie mastery neutralized by the three double bogies. All in all Zubair appears all prepared to show his forcefulness and potency in days to come, in fact the first big test will be on Sunday when he plays alongside Damil Ataullah.
