Pranavi Urs rises in second round at Swiss Ladies Open
Pranavi Urs is a golfer from India playing in the Swiss Ladies Open in Switzerland.
On the first day, she scored 1-under par, which is better than average.
On the second day she made two birdies but also one bogey, so she moved up the leaderboard.
Midway through the second round she was in 24th place.
The leader is Kajsa Arwefjall from Sweden, who played two very good rounds.
A Spanish golfer named Luna Sobron Galmes is also near the top.
Two other Indian golfers, Tvesa Malik and Diksha Dagar, are struggling.
Diksha Dagar is playing so poorly that she might not make the cut, which would end her tournament early.
Last year's champion, Hewson, is trying to win in Switzerland for a third year in a row and is playing well again.
Indian golfer Pranavi Urs opened with a 1-under 70 and improved to T-24 midway through the second round at the VP Bank Swiss Ladies Open in Switzerland.
Sweden's Kajsa Arwefjall held a three-shot lead after rounds of 64 and 66, clear of Australia's Whitney Hillier (66-67).
Spain's Luna Sobron Galmes stood 9-under for the tournament, while compatriots Latorre and Blanca Fernandez also fired low rounds.
Defending champion Hewson added a second straight 68 to remain in the top 10 as she hunts a historic third straight title in Switzerland.
Fellow Indians struggled: Tvesa Malik was T-68, and Diksha Dagar was 4-over for the week and in danger of missing the cut.
