Alfred Dunhill Championship - Day two digest

Everything you need to know from the second round at Leopard Creek Country Club.

Another low round catapulted Marcus Kinhult to the top of the leaderboard as the players felt the heat again on day two of the 2025 Alfred Dunhill Championship.

Here is everything you need to know from the second round at Leopard Creek Country Club.

Kinhult hits the front

Kinhult took a commanding three-shot lead into the weekend after following up Thursday's stunning 65 with a second-round 68 on another red hot day. The Swede began the day a solitary shot off the lead after producing the lowest afternoon score in sweltering heat on day one. And he continued to impress on Friday, making the most of cooler morning conditions before the temperature rose later in his round. The 28-year-old, whose only DP World Tour title to date came at the 2019 Betfred British Masters, made a total of seven birdies and three bogeys in his 68 to reach 11 under par. He said: "It was hot. It was actually OK this morning, I would say, but after five or six holes I got the umbrella up and tried to hide under that for most of the day. It was a good day so I'm happy."

McKibbin chases the ace

Tom McKibbin could not have come much closer to making a hole-in-one at the par-three fifth. His magnificent tee-shot pitched beside the hole before jumping left and finishing up inches from the cup. What a shot...

Wondrous wildlife

Leopard Creek really is one of the most special golf courses around because of its stunning location. We were treated to appearances from hippos, leopards, elephants, giraffes and more on Friday.

Jarvis drains enormous putt

The seventh is not an easy place to make a birdie but home hope Casey Jarvis has managed the feat at both visits to the tricky par three so far this week. Friday's came courtesy of this monster birdie putt...

Couvra makes miracle escape

Martin Couvra appeared to be in trouble at the par-four ninth when his third shot splashed out of the bunker and cleared the green, leaving him with a tricky downhill chip and not a lot of green to work with. But he only went and holed it to save his par.
