The momentum carried over into round two as the team sat in 4th place, but the lead shifted over to Puntita Pawichai with six-over-par and Adams with seven-over-par. 

Round three would be the best round of the tournament for the Jaguars as the teams overall score would finish out to be two-under-par.
