Sandhu, Sharma Miss Cut as Adam, Rozner Share Danish Lead
Professional golfers from all over the world are playing in a tournament called the Danish Golf Championship in Denmark.
In golf, players try to finish each hole using as few shots as possible.
Two golfers from India, Shubhankar Sharma and Yuvraj Sandhu, did not play well enough to continue in the tournament, so they were sent home.
Sandhu missed the cut for the fourth time in a row, which means he has been struggling lately.
Meanwhile, two other golfers, Cameron Adam from Scotland and Antoine Rozner from France, played amazingly well on Friday and set new course records.
They are now tied for first place before the weekend.
Another French golfer, Felix Mory, had set the course record on Thursday, but Rozner played even better on Friday.
A golfer from Peru named Julian Perico also made history by becoming the first Peruvian to make the cut in a DP World Tour event.
There are still more rounds to play, so anything can happen before the tournament ends.
Yuvraj Sandhu and Shubhankar Sharma missed the cut at the Danish Golf Championship on Saturday.
Sandhu carded rounds of 72 and 71 to finish one shot outside the cut line, his fourth consecutive missed cut.
Cameron Adam and Antoine Rozner both fired course records on Friday to share the lead heading into the weekend.
Rozner shot a 64 on Friday to better compatriot Felix Mory's opening-round 65, reaching 11-under.
Scotland's Ewen Ferguson sits third on 10-under, while Julian Perico became the first Peruvian to make the cut in a DP World Tour event.
