CRI听力:Paul Lawrie Takes Clubhouse Lead at KLM Open

Former British Open champion Paul Lawrie flirted with the European Tour's first 59 before eventually posting a 9-under-61 in the opening round of the Dutch Open.

"Yeah it even sounds good doesn't it - a 61! Yeah I mean I played nicely to be fair. I hot the ball really solid and putted really well. I putted very well. I have been putting a lot better this last little while. My new Caledonia is doing the trick."

Lawrie shares the lead with Australian Wade Ormsby.

Mi Hyang Lee of South Korea is tied for lead at 5-under following the first round of the Evian Championship in France.

"I think it's the first time in first place (after) the first round. So I hope I play good tomorrow also."

She's tied with American Lexi Thompson.

Guangzhou-native Feng Shanshan is well in contention after round-1, sitting tied for 6th, two back at minus-3.

China's Lin Xiyu also finished well on Thursday, carding an even-par-71.
