On the 2nd day of Dubai Desert Classic 2013, Richard Sterne birdied the closing hole to stay one clear at the summit of a congested leaderboard at the half-way stage at Emirates Golf Club on Friday.
The South African, who opened with a blazing 62, mixed four birdies, including three on the back nine, in his 2-under 70 to go 12-under for the tournament, leaving Thorbjorn Olesen of Denmark, Tommy Fleetwood of England and Scotland’s Stephen Gallacher behind in his wake.
With Germany’s Maximilian Kieffer, Denmark’s Andreas Harto and Chris Doak of Scotland lurking one shot further back at 10-under, the next two days predict for an interesting battle before the final day.
Lee Westwood and defending champion Rafael Cabrera-Bello were also among the notable players and will be needing to perform remarkably to track down the leaders, both finishing the day tied for 26th on six-under. Westwood played beautifully just one bad hole took him away from his track after signing off with a 71.
Spain’s Sergio Garcia, playing with a sore shoulder, needed to summon every ounce of energy to string together an excellent round of 67, highlighted by an eagle at the 18th, to finish the day tied 8th along with France’s Romain Wattel and ‘golf in DUBAi’ ambassador Jeev Milkha Singh.
Overnight leader Sterne needed a birdie to pull clear of the jam-packed leader board and he delivered just what the doctor ordered, comfortably rolling in his putt from five feet.
Former Challenge Tour winner Fleetwood, 22, and Dane Olesen, 23, remained bogey-free after 36 holes.
Scotland’s Gallacher felt the wind as trouble during afternoon, but the 38-year-old nephew of former Ryder Cup Captain Bernard was happy to remain in the chase.
The half-way cut fell at three-under 141, matching the tournament’s low cut recorded in 2001 and 2007. The players to miss out the weekend play include Colin Montgomerie, Thomas Bjorn, Stephen Dodd, Paul McGinley and Edoardo Molinari.
