Sandhu, Sharma miss cut at Danish Golf Championship 2025
Synopsis
Key Takeaways
Yuvraj Sandhu and Shubhankar Sharma endured another difficult week on the DP World Tour, both missing the cut at the Danish Golf Championship held at Great Northern, Kerteminde, Funen, Denmark on 15 August. The result extends a lean run for the Indian pair, with the duo now looking to regroup at next week's Nexo Championships.
Where India's Golfers Fell Short
Sandhu carded rounds of 72 and 71, missing the cut by just one stroke — his fourth consecutive missed cut on tour. The margins were agonisingly tight, but the results were the same. Sharma, meanwhile, has made just one cut on the DP World Tour since the first week of March, and that solitary appearance ended in a T-65 finish at the Turkish Airlines Open.
Sharma's second-round struggles traced back to a difficult opening day, where he posted a 2-over-par 74, recording four birdies against six bogeys. Sandhu's first round of even-par 72 included three birdies but was undone by a closing double-bogey and an earlier bogey, leaving him at T-75 after day one.
Course Records Rewritten at the Top
While the Indian duo struggled, the leaderboard at Great Northern was being redrawn by record-breaking performances. Frenchman Félix Mory set the tone in round one with a 7-under-par 65, matching the lowest round of his DP World Tour career and establishing a new course record. He led by one shot over home favourite Lucas Bjerregaard and South African Brandon Stone after day one.
Day two, however, belonged to Antoine Rozner and Cameron Adam. Rozner, a three-time DP World Tour winner, fired a 64 to better Mory's mark and reach 11 under par. He appeared set to lead alone heading into the weekend, but Scotland's Cameron Adam had other ideas — birdieing the par-three 18th to post a stunning 9-under 63, lowering the course record once more and joining Rozner at the summit of the leaderboard.
Leaderboard After 36 Holes
Scotland's Ewen Ferguson sits third at 10 under par, one shot ahead of a cluster on 9 under that includes Julian Perico — who became the first Peruvian to make the cut in a DP World Tour event — England's Matthew Jordan, Frenchman Romain Langasque, South African Brandon Stone, and American Caleb Surratt.
Two-time Masters champion Bubba Watson and Chinese teenager Yanhan Zhou share ninth place at 8 under par.
What's Next for Sandhu and Sharma
With form elusive and confidence under pressure, both Sandhu and Sharma will be eager for a fresh start at the Nexo Championships next week. For Sharma especially, a run of poor results since March makes the upcoming event a critical opportunity to rediscover his best golf and salvage his DP World Tour season.
