PAUL O'HARA LEADS SCOTS IN LAST EVENT OF TURKISH SWING

By COLIN FARQUHARSONColin@scottishgolfview.com
Motherwell's Paul O'Hara ended the first day of the last tournament of the EPD Turkish swing - the Sueno Pines Classic - at Belek in joint third place in a field of 89 players.
O'Hara shot a three-under-par 69 to be two shots behind joint leaders, Max Kramer and Daniel Wunsche, both from Germany.
O'Hara, starting at the 10th, bogeyed his first hole but then birdied the 12th, long 15th, long 17th and ninth.
Rookie pro David Law from Aberdeen, having missed the last two cuts, produced a more settled round of 73 with only three deviations from par. He bogeyed the second and fifth but birdied the long eighth and parred his last 10 holes for a share of 24th place.
Ellon's Ross Cameron had a 74, not a bad effort considering he was four over par with five holes to play, having run up a double bogey 5 at the short 13th after bogeys at the fifth and ninth. But he finished on a high with birdies at the 14th and long 17th for a share of 41st place.
Fraserburgh's Jordan Findlay is still struggling to put together a decent sore.. He had double bogeys at the long first and par-4 10th in compiling a 75 for a share of 52nd place.
