Gangjee misses cut in Nationwide tourney, Chopra 50th

Chattanooga (USA): Rahil Gangjee turned in a disappointing eight-over 80 in the second round and missed the cut in the Children`s Hospital Classic golf tournament.

Gangjee, who began well with a first round 68, was all over in the second round and his back nine came in at eight-over 44. Daniel Chopra added a 69 to his first round 70 and was lying 50th at the midway stage -- an improvement on the overnight 69th. Gangjee`s sole birdie of the day came on the eighth and then he had a bogey on the ninth. There were bogeys on 11th, 13th and 14th also and he finished with a double bogey on the 16th and a triple bogey on 18th. The cut came at four-under and Gangjee was four-over. John Mallinger shot a seven-under 65 and grabbed the 36-hole lead. Mallinger`s 13-under 131 total is one better than Billy Hurley III, who kept pace with his own 65 and former champion Justin Bolli (67). PTI
