KELSEY MACDONALD IS LEADING SCOT AFTER THE FIRST ROUND OF THE OMEGA DUBAI CLASSIC

Thailand’s Supamas Sangchan fired a bogey-free five-under-par 67 to seize the early initiative at the Omega Dubai Ladies Classic at Emirates Golf Club on Wednesday.
Starting from the 10th tee, the 21-year-old Bangkok native came to life on the front nine after making the turn at one-under, reeling off four birdies in six holes to leave a strong field trailing in her wake.

Scotland’s Kelsey MacDonald also sounded pleased with her day’s efforts with a great 4 under par 68 to lie tied 2nd place saying: “I made a couple of birdies in the first few holes which was nice. I have got one of my best friends on the bag and that made things more enjoyable.
 “This is my favourite event apart from the Scottish Open. They (the organisers) look after us so well. Also, the course is really good. Each hole is different, but I seem to get momentum going which is really good.”

SCOTTISH SCORES:
T2 - K MacDonald 68
T14 - M Thomson, G Dryburgh, 70
T46 - P Pretswell Asher, K Henry  72
T57 - C Matthew, C Booth  73
