HAWAII: China’s Li Haotong (pic) kept his sights firmly on a title assault at the Sony Open in Hawaii with a second round five-under 65 as Japanese world amateur No. 1 Keita Nakajima reinforced his credentials as a rising star.
Haotong showed up in Hawaii with a new look, wearing prescription spectacles which has certainly kept him in focus so far.Haotong, once a top 50 golfer in the world but now ranked 460th, maintained his resurgence by firing six birdies and one bogey at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu where his 12-under 128 total left him in solo second and three shots behind leader Russell Henley.
