Indiza in commanding lead at Safari Tour at Vet Lab

Long hitting Dismas Indiza took a commanding lead in the second round of the 2020 Safari Tour third leg at the par 72 Vet Lab Sports Club on Monday.

After playing two under par 70 in the opening round on Sunday, today, he played four under par 68 for a total of six under par 138 heading into Tuesday’s third round.

Last year, Indiza lost the Vet Lab in a play off with Muthaiga’s Greg Snow who started this year’s “Road to Magical Kenya Open’’ campaign with a victory at Limuru though he later came third at Royal Nairobi during last week’s second leg.

“I played nine holes at Royal on Friday then came to Vet Lab for an 18 holes to see how the course was playing, and that really helped to understand the greens well here’’ said Indiza.

“My strength today was chipping and putting though I still have to polish them up before tomorrow’s second round’’ said the Mumias based Indiza who missed the cut at Limuru but tied for 15th at Royal.

Zimbabwe’s Robson Chinhoi, who won the second leg at Royal Nairobi fired one under par 71 to take the second position on level 144 with first leg winner Greg Snow completing the podium with +1 after firing a total of 145.

round one leader from Vet Lab Nelson Simwa, who tied with Indiza on Sunday went under with four over par 76 to finish round two on +2 146.

another Vet Lab’s Hesbon Kutwa came in 5th (+3) tying with Kenya Railways player Samuel Njoroge.
