That's my boy Trishul! Been following his career since amateur days. The way he's bounced back after first round shows real champion mentality 💪

Interesting to see Siddikur Rahman still in contention. The international experience might give him an edge in the final round. Exciting finish ahead!

That scorecard is wild - 64 with a bogey means he was actually on track for 63! Nerves of steel to recover after that one dropped shot. Hope he gets his maiden win 🤞
