The 30-year-old impressed on the first two holes as he birdied them both, but he faces competition from three men in the field, who finished the first round six-under-par.

Prom Meesawat, Jorge Campillo and Nacho Elvira are just one shot off the pace, while five players are five-under at this early stage of the tournament.

Meesawat hampered his chances of topping the leaderboard when he suffered a bogey on the 10th hole, but he showed signs of intent by shooting seven birdies, three of which came consecutively from the 13th hole.
