Aberdeen-born Clark Lutton, based at Dohar, Qatar for a number of years, had a 76 to be sharing 85th position, also at Majestic Creek.

At the Rayong Country Club, Senroku Isa of Japan topped the leaderboard after a five-under-par 66.

He holds a one-stroke lead over Jake Grodzinsky of the United States and Australia's Nathan Main who are in tied second place on matching 67s.
