Other Indian Golfers' Performance

The two other Indians in the field, Pranavi Urs and Vani Kapoor, failed to make the weekend after missing the cut. Pranavi returned a second-round card of 1-over par to finish at 4-over overall in tied-72nd place, while Vani retired after the opening round.

Avani, meanwhile, enjoyed a much-improved second round after starting on the front nine. The turnaround was evident early as she eagled the par-5 fourth hole, having endured a double bogey on the same hole in the opening round.

Key Moments for Prashanth

She carried the momentum into the back nine with birdies on the 11th and 13th holes before dropping her lone shot of the round on the 14th. A late birdie on the 17th capped off an impressive day as Avani signed off with a 4-under 69.

Sara Kouskova shot the lowest round of the day. She fired a 7-under 64 to move into second position with a total score of 8-under par (71-64).

The two-time LET winner began her round on the 10th hole and produced an early moment of brilliance by holing out from a bunker for eagle on the very next hole. She added birdies on the 14th and 17th before catching fire on the front nine with three successive birdies on the third, fourth and fifth holes.

Kouskova dropped her only shot of the day on the sixth but responded immediately with a birdie on the seventh to sign for an impressive seven-under round.

Four players are in a share of the third place with Norway's Dorthea Forbrigd joined by the German trio of Alexandra Forsterling, Chiara Noja and Leonie Harm -- all on six-under-par.
