Scott Jamieson and Sebastian Heisele each opened with a 7-under 65 to share the first-round lead at the DP World Tour’s Ras al Khaimah Championship in the United Arab Emirates.
After the past few events on the circuit – formerly branded as the European Tour – saw star-loaded fields, there were only two golfers inside the top 10 of the event’s first round who sit inside the top 100 in the Official World Golf Ranking.
Jamieson was bogey free in taking a share of the 18-hole lead. The 38-year-old Scottsman was in position to win a few weeks ago at the Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship but stumbled in the final round, eventually signing for 5 over and dropping to T-10.
