This is wonderful. He is leading with 6 under par. Now it will be important to keep the intensity in the 2nd round and take a sizeable lead. Well done!

Thanks a bunch for the info Rafi vai

_Rafi_ · #**159** April 22, 2011, 01:23 AM

Siddikur put it right for par atleast. Lee and jaidee bogeyed.

_Rafi_ · #**160** April 22, 2011, 01:31 AM

lee had fantastic run of birdie earlier in the morning and thats put him ahead of siddikur and he is now firm favourite. Siddikur no birdie so far

_Rafi_ · #**161** April 22, 2011, 01:32 AM

oops! Siddikur losing it. Very bad shot.

_Rafi_ · #**162** April 22, 2011, 01:37 AM

Lee birdied again(-8)
Jaidee(-6)
Siddikur came back well for a succesful par put(-6)

_Rafi_ · #**163** April 22, 2011, 02:57 AM

down...down...down. Disasterous so far.

MohammedC · #**164** April 22, 2011, 02:58 AM

Siddikur falling behind 2 bogey in last 2 hole has put him on 14th place.

ahnaf · #**165** April 22, 2011, 03:04 AM

Thats the problem of him.. He just cant maintain the momentum..

**Zunaid** · #**166** April 22, 2011, 06:06 AM

He is at 13 going into the final two rounds after the cut (which was +2).

I was so surprised to hear him being mentioned on Sky News yesterday. It felt good to hear "Westwood is trailing two shots behind leader Siddiqur from Bangladesh" (even the presenter was surprised). This tournament is being closely followed in England because Lee Westwood, who is the highest ranked Englishman, is playing in it and if he wins this he could become World No. 1 again. Anyway unfortunate that Siddiq couldn't carry his form into Round 2. There's still 2 rounds left and a Top 10 finish would be a highly commendable effort from Siddiqur. Surprised to see very little mention of this on Bangladeshi media.

**Zunaid** · #**168** April 22, 2011, 09:06 AM

The 2nd round wasn't completed as they play was called off due to lightning and will resume 6:30 am local time tomorrow. Siddiqur still had 2 holes to go and perhaps can pull it up a bit. He has always done better in the back 9.

Night_wolf · #**169** April 22, 2011, 09:10 AM

anybody know what is that sign after some players name?...some have it some dont..why?

Bancan · #**170** April 22, 2011, 09:12 AM

Its a golf equipment and apparel company.

It's a brand of golfing equipment and accessories. Many tour professional have endorsement deals for Titleist and are contracted to use their equipment. I also assume they sponsor the Asian tour and has the right to have their logo displayed on the leader-board against the name of their endorsed golfers.

Night_wolf · #**172** April 22, 2011, 09:47 AM

Oh..thank u!..its nice to see siddikur is one of their endorsed golfers

MohammedC · #**173** April 22, 2011, 10:36 AM

Nice to see few more post from other BCites. I was getting lonely apart from occasional post by thread starter cricman.

Siddikur needs to find another birdie tomorrow and try for better third round.

Pardon my golf knowledge, is Siddik's first day performance as good as a good Day 1 of a 5 day test match?

You could say it is the first of the 4 innings. He bowled very well to restrict the opposition to a low score. Coming into bat, he loat some quick wickets and lost a bit of the advantage he has. He has to now bat and bowl really well next 2 innings to make something out of it. His first tour win happened during Thr mandatory final overs when he yorked the last at bat to win.
