Two superb shots on the last hole enabled Jason Scrivener to finish the opening round of the European Masters one shot off the lead after a closing birdie earned him a six-under-par 64.
The Australian lashed his drive at the monster 629-yard par-five ninth (having started on the back nine) into rough on the right, but hacked out into semi-rough on the left 136 yards from the pin. A wonderful approach shot then left him with an 18-inch putt for birdie.
