Bagalana ace lights up Day Two of Pro-Tee as Kamulindwa assumes lead

David Kamulindwa played the best round on the second day of the MTN Pro-Tee at Entebbe Golf Club on Wednesday.

Kamulindwa fired seven birdies in the second round of a 5-under 66 at the par-71 course overlooking Lake Victoria.

Playing at his second home, Kamulindwa opened round two with a birdie, and that set the pace for the day. He went on to birdie holes 4, 9, 11, 13, 14, and 15, but scratched with a couple of bogeys on par-3 holes 6 and 16.

Vincent Byamukama maintained second place after playing a 1-under 70 and is one shot behind the leader.

Meanwhile, Day One leader Rodell Gaita struggled on the back nine en route to a one-over 72 to slip to third on the leaderboard. Gaita bogeyed par-4 holes 14 and 17 and registered a double bogey on par-3 hole 16.

Andrew Ssekibejja moved up nine places into fourth place after playing the second-best round of the day. The Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort & Spa golfer played a 3-under 68 and is tied for fourth place with Abraham Ainamani with a gross total of 142.

Day One leader Marvin Kibirige had a round to forget as he returned a 4-over 75 and slipped to sixth place.

Irene Nakalembe, who has played an identical 2-over 73 in the two rounds, is the only lady who made the cut.

Abbey Bagalana’s ace

The brightest moment of round two of the Pro-Tee was on par-3 hole 12. While Gaita and Deo Akope birdied the hole, Abbey Bagalana, with a Ping S55, hit an eye-catching hole-in-one, the seventh of his career.

“You don’t come to the course expecting a hole-in-one, but for as long as you’re playing and you do practice, things like that happen because you’re aiming for the hole. It was the right club, I was in the zone, and I made it,” Bagalana said.

Round 3 Draw

The Pro-Tee continues on Thursday with Round Three, as the players who made the cut continue to battle for a lion’s share of Shs. 15,000,000.
