ASIAN TOUR REPORT AND FIRST-ROUND SCORES


SALVADOR'S HOT PUTTER GETS

 HIM A  66 AT TAIPEI
 
Taipei: Filipino veteran Elmer Salvador rode on a hot putter to grab the opening round lead with a six-under-par 66 at the US$500,000 Yeangder Tournament Players Championship (TPC) today.
The 45-year-old registered seven birdies against one bogey to lead by one shot from three-time Asian Tour winner Marcus Both of Australia, Lien Lu-sen of Chinese Taipei and Thailand’s Prom Meesawat at the Linkou International Golf and Country Club.
The flamboyant Angelo Que of the Philippines produced the shot of the day when he aced the par-three fifth hole with a seven iron to share fifth place alongside countryman Antonio Lascuna, Malaysia’s Danny Chia and Hsu Hao-sheng of Chinese Taipei.
Que had a day to remember when his first official hole-in-one earned him an Audemars Piguet watch worth 584,000 NT (approximately US$19,000) and 200,000 NT in cash (approximately US$6,500).
