John Parry's Stellar Performance Leads Kenya Open

John Parry took a one-shot lead at the DP World Tour's Kenya Open with a bogey-free 65. Heading the leaderboard at 14 under-par, he outpaced France's Benjamin Hebert. South African Jayden Schaper is third, while Parry's strategic gameplay and previous win at the Mauritius Open highlight his capabilities.

England's John Parry showcased a flawless performance on Friday, shooting a bogey-free 65 to claim a one-shot lead in the DP World Tour's Kenya Open at the Muthaiga Golf Club in Nairobi. His remarkable score of 14 under-par follows an impressive 63 on Thursday, positioning him ahead at the tournament's halfway mark.

Parry's closest competitor, France's Benjamin Hebert, secured a 66 in his second round, trailing by a single stroke. Their strategic lead put significant distance between them and South African Jayden Schaper, who sits in third place five shots back, with a score of nine under-par.

Parry's approach reflects his season triumph at the Mauritius Open in December. Hebert noted the increasing challenge with firmer greens and tricky pin placements, underscoring the need for conservative play on the course.
