Sharmila, who hurt herself in the first round, and shot a disappointing 80, came out for the second round after taking pain killers, and carded a 72.

She had three birdies, including one on the last and dropped five bogeys in her 72. She totaled 152.

Diana Luna fired a second-round of six-under-par 64 to take a two stroke lead at the halfway stage. The 29-year-old Italian moved to the top of the leader board at nine-under-par on the second day at the Chantaco Golf Club in Saint-Jean-de-Luz, south-west France.

The first round leader Stacey Keating of Australia followed her opening 62 with a one-over 71 to sit alone in second place. Carlota Ciganda of Spain, Germany
