Defending champion Du ready for Zhuhai title fight

Defending champion Du Mohan moved to the top of the Golf Liquor Zhuhai Golden Gulf Challenge leader-board yesterday when the Beijing native carded a 7-under-par 65 to take a one-shot lead over Liu Yan (67) through two rounds in Guangdong Province.

In the second tournament of the China LPGA Tour season, Du was 11-under 133 through 36 holes at the Zhuhai Golden Gulf Golf Club. Yin Ruoning, the Shanghai teenager who won last week’s Zhuhai Hollywood Mansion Challenge, shot a 66 to sit equal third at four shots back, tied with overnight co-leader Zhang Jienalin (70). Ren Yue (68) was fifth, one shot ahead of amateur Zhang Junyuan (69), at six shots off the pace. Taking advantage of the soft greens following overnight rain, Du, 18, had a strong day, with eight birdies and a lone bogey at the 200,000-yuan (US$29,000) event.
