Hainan Classic Round 2

Jordan Gumberg continued his impressive form during the second round of the 2026 Hainan Classic, carding a 6-under-par 66 to extend his lead at the halfway stage. Gumberg’s objective was to capitalize on the morning conditions, and he did so effectively by picking up four birdies on his opening nine holes.

His 36-hole total of 14-under-par provided a two-stroke cushion as he moved closer to securing his second DP World Tour title. Jorge Campillo remained his closest pursuer, following up his opening 65 with a solid 5-under-par 67 to sit in solo second at 12-under-par.

The day was defined by a strong showing from the South African contingent, with Thriston Lawrence and Dylan Frittelli sharing third place at 10-under-par. Local interest remained high as a group of Chinese players, including Wenyi Ding and Yanhan Zhou, safely navigated the cut to sit in a tie for sixth at 8-under-par.

While the scoring remained high across both courses, the cut fell at a competitive level, leaving 69 players to battle it out over the weekend.
