PEERLESS PAUL LEADS PLF PRO
SERIES AT PENINA
Paul Lawrie leads his own Paul Lawrie Foundation Pro Series - the official title - a brilliant opening round of five-under-par 68 over the Henry Cotton Championship Course at Penina, near Portimao today, writes Colin Farquharson
Lawrie's bogey-free round was highlighted by five birdies - at the third, long fifth, ninth, long 10th and long 11th.
With the temperature around the 22 degrees mark and very little wind - in contrast to what the players left behind in Scotland - conditions were ideal for scoring
Greig Hutcheon, who knows the course well, having spent several winters practising over it, is two shots off the pace in second place with a 70.
Third place on 71 is shared by Ross Kellett and Scott Henderson. There are 18 players in the field.
The tournament is over 54 holes, all at Penina.
