The 16-year-old, who played practicall­y his entire amateur career in the country, had four birdies and an eagle 2 on No. 9 for a 131 aggregate to lead South African Mathiam Keyser and amateur Judeson Eustaquio, who carded 67 and 68, respective­ly, for 135s.

“My game in the first two days has been stress-free, not making many mistakes,” said Kim, who helped Southwoods to a fourth straight PAL Interclub title early this year.

He is also seeking to win back-to-back events after winning at Pueblo de Oro last week.
