"I just stayed patient. I played good stuff the first 12 holes and didn’t hole too much.

"The last six holes I putted really well, which made a big difference."

Tied alongside him at the top are Poland's Adrian Meronk (65, bogey-free) and Denmark's Rasmus Højgaard (67).

"A lot of solid shots, great putts," said Meronk.

"It was quite calm in the morning so you could aim at the pins and go quite aggressive, which I did."
