Italian amateur Carolina Melgrati carded an opening 7-under 65 to top the leaderboard of the Volvo Car Scandinavian Mixed alongside three male professionals.

“It is probably a result of working hard and it is paying off.

“I’m just trying to focus on hitting fairways and hitting greens and then making putts. When it works it’s great, when it doesn’t you just have to go back and practise it some more.”

Melgrati made the turn in 35 after an unfortunate bogey at the 8th but her back nine featured an eagle at the par-5 11th and she finished in 30.

“I didn’t feel a difference between the front and back nine, but I just tried to stick to my processes – nothing really changed in my mind.

“It is crazy! It is so great. As soon as I got the invitation, I said yes, I’m playing because it is great to compete with professional golfers. It is amazing and that is also my dream, so it is coming true.”

Spain’s Santiago Tarrio joins her in the lead as well as Scotland’s Craig Howie and France’s Matthieu Pavon who both remained bogey-free on Thursday.

Swedes Linn Grant and Kristoffer Broberg are tied in fifth place at 6-under alongside Thailand’s Jazz Janewattananond and England’s Liz Young.
