 CAMERON, LAW SHARING 6th PLACE IN MOROCCO

Two Paul Lawrie Golf Centre players, Ross Cameron from Ellon and Aberdeen's David Law, are sharing sixth place on one-under-par 71 after the first round of the German PGA Pro Golf Tour event, the Samanah Open at Marrakech, Morocco.
Cameron deviated from par only three times over the Jack Nicklaus designed course which was opened in 2008. He birdied the ninth and 16th with a solitary bogey at the 13th.
Northern Open champion Law birdied all four long holes but dropped shots at the par-4 second, 10th and 18th.
Last year's Scottish amateur champion, Chris Robb (Meldrum House), is joint 13th on 72 after birdieing the sixth, 12th and 16th, cancelling out these gains with bogeys at the third, 10th and 15th.
Ted Innes Ker is joint 35th on 74 while the third and four Paul Lawrie Golf Centre players in the field of 111, Philip McLean from Peterhead and Portlethen's Sam Kiloh will struggle to beat the second-round cut after scores of 77 and 78 respectively.
Dutchman Fernand Osther's six-under 66 has him three shots ahead of second placed compatriot Reinier Saxton who won the British amateur championship at Turnberry in 2008.
