Girona (Spain): Jeev Milkha Singh, struggling to find his form and rhythm, opened with a sedate one-under 71, as did his fellow Indian Gaganjeet Bhullar (71), to be tied for 18th place at the end of the first round of the Open de Espana.

Jeev had four birdies against three bogeys, while Bhullar, who is playing his rookie year on the European Tour, also had two birdies and one bogey.

England’s Eddie Pepperell was the sole leader on a tightly packed leaderboard with a round of 68.

Meanwhile, in the Philippines, Anirban Lahiri made a brilliant surge on the back nine to haul himself back into contention with a round of three-under 69 to bring him to tied 36th.

The best Indian continued to be SSP Chowrasia, who moved from 10th to tied sixth with a one-under 71.

Marcus Both rediscovered some old magic to charge to the lead with a six-under 66. (PTI)
