By COLIN FARQUHARSON

David Law has followed up his victory in Turkey with an opening four-under-par 68 to be lying joint second in a field of 93 for the Sueno Pines Classic at Belek.
The 21-year-old Aberdonian is four shots off a hot pace being set by Ken Benz from Switzerland.
Law, starting at the 10th, birdied the long 15th, the long 17th,18th and fourth before he dropped his first shot of the day at the long eighth - his penultimate hole - but he notched his fifth birdie at the ninth.
The two other members of the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre team, Jordan Findlay from Fraserburgh and Peterhead's Philip McLean, did not do so well and are joint 59th.
Findlay, who finished with a four-over 76, double-bogeyed his first hole, the 10th, and dropped another at the 15th. He did birdie the long first and fifth after the turn but cancelled these gains with bogeys at the second, fourth and long eighth.
McLean, also starting at the 10th, was three over par very early on with a bogey at the 11th and a double bogey at the 12th. He stopped the rote with cirides at the long 15th and long 17h but a double bogey 7 at the long first was followed by bogeys at the fifth and short seventh. A birdie at his last hole, the ninth, saw him also finish on 76.
