Golf: Fraser eyes second Ballantine’s
Austria’s Bernd Wiesberger fired a seven-under 65 and take the clubhouse lead at the Ballantine’s Championship.
SEOUL:
Austria’s Bernd Wiesberger took advantage of calm morning conditions at the Blackstone Golf Club to fire a blemish-free seven-under 65 and take the clubhouse lead at the Ballantine’s Championship. The 26-year-old world number 170 recorded seven birdies and not a single bogey to card a seven-under par total at the halfway stage of the tournament, one ahead of Marcus Fraser of Australia. “You know I got the odd break on the back nine,” admitted Wiesberger. “I holed a long putt on five and a chip-in at the last. But some of these days it all comes together.”
