DP World Tour : D+D REAL Czech Masters..Leaderboard
David Ravetto birdied the final hole of round two to take the halfway lead at the 2024 D+D REAL Czech Masters on -13
The Frenchman emerged from a four-way tie with Richie Ramsay, (67) Jesper Svensson (67) and Andrew Johnston, whose course-record 63 he quickly matched thanks to his final flourish on Friday at PGA National OAKS Prague.
Espen Kofstad (65) and Brandon Robinson Thompson (68) were a shot further back on -11 after two days of impressive scoring on a course making its DP World Tour debut.
Ravetto’s bogey-free round started on the back nine, holing birdie putts from 12 feet at the 11th and from close range at the 13th before making eagle from beside the 16th green.
Turning to the front nine, he began with back-to-back birdies and added two more at the fourth and sixth, the latter with a 28-foot putt, before a steely seven-footer at the ninth took him out on his own.
He said: "I feel really good. I've been playing really good the last few weeks practising and today was just a perfect round. The putts fell in and I couldn’t ask for more.
"My main focus this week is to enjoy it so obviously leading the tournament after two days, I'm enjoying it right now and I feel comfortable. I'm just going to try to enjoy myself and we'll see where it goes."
Kofstad birdied four of his last six holes to add an impressive-7 65 to his opening -4 68 while a shot further back at -10 were Ross Fisher, Connor Syme and Bernd Wiesberger, with seven players then tied on nine under.
edit... Canadian Aaron Cockerill narrowly (by a shot) misses the cut at -3 which fell at -4...
