DAR ES SALAAM: AMATEUR standout Isiaka Daudi continued his run at the Lina Professional Golfers (PG) Tour Pro-Am 2025, taking control of the leader board after Round 2 at Morogoro Gymkhana Club over the weekend.

Representing TPDF Lugalo Golf Club in Dar es Salaam, Daudi fired a 4-under-par 68 on Friday, bringing his 36-hole total to 7-under-par (-7) and opening up a seven-stroke lead over his nearest competitor.

Among the professionals, topranked Elisante Lembris struggled, posting a +4 in Round 2, though he still leads the pro category.
