Pune, March 23 (IANS): Delhi golfer Vani Kapoor consolidated her lead, carding one-over (72) after the second round of the Rs 6,00,000-Hero Womens Professional Tour at the Poona Club Golf Course here on Thursday.

Trailing her by a margin of seven shots is Panchkula's Amandeep Drall with a total score of 149 after 36 holes.

Amandeep carded the lone birdie of her front nine on the third hole, while dropping shots on the second, sixth and seventh. On the return, she carded birdies on the 11th and 13th, but undid the good work with a bogey on the 12th and a double on the 16th to finish the round with a score of three-over (74).
