Lagergren Weathers Windstorm to Hold KLM Open Top Spot

Sweden’s Joakim Lagergren held the lead after a second round interrupted by heavy winds at the 2025 KLM Open.

Gusts of over 35mph at The International in Amsterdam led to a suspension of over two hours on Friday afternoon, with Lagergren already safely in the clubhouse on eight under par after a battling 68.

The 33-year-old shared top spot at that stage with first-round leader Ricardo Gouveia, who suffered from the difficult conditions after the resumption but clawed his way to a 72 and a six-under-par total thanks to a closing birdie.

Scotland’s Connor Syme was third on five under, a shot ahead of compatriot Richie Ramsay – who had one hole to play when darkness forced the players off the course, and France’s Pierre Pineau.

England’s Andy Sullivan shot an impressive 70, one of only 11 completed rounds under par, to share sixth place with Oliver Lindell and Francesco Laporta on three under. Finn Lindell went round in 71, level par, while Laporta was one under for 17 holes.

Australia’s Jason Scrivener aced the 110-yard 11th hole late in the afternoon following an earlier albatross for Niklas Lemke, the Swede holing out from 183 yards at the par-five third. At 10 over par, though, he remained well outside the projected cut line of four over.

Round two of the KLM Open will resume at 9:00 am local time, with round three a 2-tee start; U draw not before 10:15 am.
