McGrane opens up two-shot lead in Delhi

Damien McGrane produced another conservative but productive round at the tight tree-lined Delhi Golf Club this morning to open up a two-stroke lead over Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell and South Africa’s Hendrik Buhrmann at the midway point of the second round at the Indian Masters.

McGrane followed up his opening round five-under-par 67, which had left the 36-year-old world number 311 in second place and two shots back of Indian number one Jyoti Randhawa, with a conservative 69 in chilly conditions in the Indian capital.
