DP World Tour: Siem and Schneider Climb Leaderboard in Mauritius

Marcel Siem and Marcel Schneider posted strong rounds at the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open, moving into the top 20.

The second round of the AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open, co-sanctioned by the DP World Tour and the Sunshine Tour, took place at La Réserve Golf Links in Bel Ombre, Mauritius. Despite occasional rain and coastal winds, German players Marcel Siem and Marcel Schneider made significant moves up the leaderboard.

Siem and Schneider Break into the Top 20

Marcel Schneider started hot with four birdies on the front nine, only marred by a bogey on the 9th hole. He added two more birdies on the back nine and finished with a 68 (-4), placing him tied for 20th.

Fellow German Marcel Siem matched Schneider’s position with a stellar 67 (-5), carding eight birdies against two bogeys. After an over-par opening round, Siem’s local knowledge helped him rebound impressively.

Mixed Results for Other German Players

Nick Bachem remained steady with a 70 (-2), balancing two bogeys with four birdies to sit tied for 37th. His consistent play keeps him in contention heading into the weekend.

Dominic Foos struggled again, despite an early birdie. A double bogey on the 8th hole disrupted his rhythm, and further mistakes led to a 75 (+3), missing the cut at T116.

Allen John Withdraws, Jarvis Leads

Allen John withdrew midway through his second round after carding three bogeys and a double bogey. He finished with a total of +14 over three nine-hole rounds.

At the top of the leaderboard, South Africa’s Casey Jarvis leads at -12 after a solid 65. France’s Alexander Levy is two shots back with a bogey-free 66, while Spain’s Manuel Elvira sits close behind after a 67.
