Final day draw (bottom)
Entebbe, Uganda | LOUIS JADWONG | Ronald Otile showed he will not lose his Uganda Amateur Golf Open title without a fight by breaking the Lake Victoria Serena Golf Resort & Spa course record to charge into Saturday's final day 'pressure group'.
The 24-year-old carded an astonishing 66 - six under par on Friday, courtesy of a eagle, six birdies and 9 pars.
Otile rewrote the record he had set just a day earlier with a four under par 68 strokes as he chased a pack of Kenyans, who have dominated the 78th Uganda Amateur Golf Open from day one.
After a disastrous start, that saw him card 82 strokes on Wednesday, he had remained optimistic, and warned that, "It is a game. I played +10 today, but I can still play -10 tomorrow."

From being 13 strokes behind the leader on day one, Otile will be in the 'pressure group' for the final round on Saturday. He will tee off at 12.30pm in a group of three that includes Njoroge and Njogu, and this time he will be only three strokes behind.
