Made in HimmerLand - Day two digest

Fisher rescued a vital birdie, Rasmus Hojgaard brought the noise and Paul eyed a change of sport on day two of Made in Himmerland.

Here is everything you need to know from Friday in Denmark.

Fisher's great escape

Ross Fisher ended the day third, two shots off the lead held by Nacho Elvira, but his closing bogey would have dropped him back alongside Marc Warren and Richie Ramsay at six under had he not carded an unlikely birdie two holes earlier at the seventh. From thick rough down the left of the hole, the Englishman lofted his ball out to four feet from the hole and made the putt for a three.

Rasmus gets the crowd going

The home crowd brought the noise, squeaky ducks and all, as Dane Rasmus Hojgaard rolled in this 20-foot birdie putt at the signature 16th hole on HimmerLand Hill.

Horses for courses

Jordan Smith had a new iron specially set up for the demands of HimmerLand and it paid off at the 14th hole as he drove the par-four green on his way to one of six birdies in his round of 66.

From eagles to Eagles

What other sport would Yannik Paul be playing if not golf? Oh, just turning out in the Bundesliga for Eintracht Frankfurt – appropriately nicknamed the Eagles – and emulating Mario Götze’s 2014 World Cup-winning goal for Germany.

Mario would never take a chunk out of the turf like this though…
