Despite facing putting challenges, Dubai-born golfer Rayhan Thomas has put himself in a promising spot at the halfway stage of the DP World Tour Qualifying School, where he is tied for 17th at Donnington Grove Golf Club in Newbury, England. The 24-year-old, representing Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, who is ranked 1,246th in the Official World Golf Ranking (OWGR), shot an even-par 72 in his second round, keeping him well-positioned to progress to the next stage. Reflected on his performance, Rayhan told Khaleej Times: “My game was good – I hit a lot of good shots and gave myself plenty of chances.

My putting was just not on track. “Apart from that, I was very happy. The course is fun to play, though I had a frustrating three-putt on the 7th hole – my 16th.



The weather was perfect, with just a little wind,” he added. “My plan is to hopefully read the greens a bit better and sink more putts in the next two rounds. I’m in a strong position with 36 holes to play.
