GERMAN PGA DEVELOPMENTAL TOUR EVENT
FINDLAY LEADING SCOT AT MOGADOR
OPEN IN MOROCCO .. B UT WITH A 75
Fraserburgh's Jordan Findlay (pictured) shot a three-over-par 75 for joint 21st place, seven shots behind leader Marcel Sneider (Germany) at the end of the first round of the German PGA Developmental Tour event, the Mogador Open, at Essaouira Golf Club, Morocco today.
Findlay, playing out of the Paul Lawrie Golf Centre had birdies a the long second, nint6h, short 13th and long 16th but seven bogeys - four before the turn, three after - dragged his score down.
Team-mate Philip McLean from Peterhead is sharing 40th place on 77 with only one birdie, at the short fifth, and six birdies.

At the top of the leaderboard, Sneider had a bag of seven birdies in his 68 to lead by two shots from 2013 Walker Cup player, Nathan Kimsey (Woodhall Spa) who turned pro in mid-December and is making his debut in the paid ranks.
