Alexander Levy, Lee Soomin earn share of lead in Shenzhen

Alexander Levy and Lee Soomin both shot a first-round 66 to earn a share of the lead after an interrupted opening day of the Shenzhen International in China.

The duo enjoyed bogey-free opening rounds - Levy managing an eagle on 17 - to boast a narrow one-shot lead over Brandon Steele, who finished on five-under-par but he will play his final hole tomorrow after play was suspended due to darkness.

Ireland's Paul Dunne, on four-under, sits in a five-way tie for third, with all five of those finishing their opening rounds.

England's Tommy Fleetwood and Scot Richie Ramsey finished their round with a three-under 69, while three more Englishmen in Lee Slattery, James Morrison and Ross Fisher shot 70.

Two-time Major winner Bubba Watson, meanwhile, is one-under after his round of 71.

Local hopefuls Zhou Guo-wu Zhou (-3) and Li Chao (-2) will complete their rounds tomorrow, after finishing the day 14 and 13 respectively.
