Paul Lawrie's left foot forces him to retire at Celtic Manor

Paul Lawrie has retired from the Celtic Manor Welsh Open at Newport after returning a first-round 79.
On his blog, Paul writes:
"I got off to a terrible start today with two bogeys in the first four holes. I shot 79 and actually played ok but yet again got severely punished for any shot off line. My left foot has been sore again so I have decided not to play tomorrow and return home to rest it."

... and Christian Cevaer pulls out after 12 holes

Christian Cevaer, surprise winner of the European Open on Sunday, withdrew from the Wales Open after 12 holes today because of exhaustion.
Cevaer said he felt dizzy on the course and withdrew on doctor's orders.
The 39-year-old Frenchman, who lives in Switzerland, said the elation of winning the European Open combined with problems with his managing agents "have caught up with me."
He had been unable to get home after his victory on Sunday.
"I didn't sleep that much. The problems off the course are causing me a lot of stress and turmoil. They are taking a bit of sleep away."
He added that he also had physical problems stemming from the stress of worrying about the management company.
"The combination of all those factors meant I was unable to perform on the golf course today," he said.
He next plans to play in Final Open Qualifying at Sunningdale.
