Round 1 of the Nordea Masters produced 60 sub-par rounds and a field average score of 72.54. Matteo Manassero and Pablo Larrazábal have taken the lead on -6. We analyse their performances plus we round up the early Genworth Statistics leaders.
Matteo MANASSERO -6
Matteo Manassero got off to a blistering start with six birdies in his first six holes, on his way to an opening round of 66. Looking at his Genworth Statistics, the 20 year old Italian maestro hit 9/13 fairways and 14/18 greens in regulation, plus he took just 26 putts in total. We should note that with five Par 5 holes in use over the Bro Hof Slott course this week, the Par 5 Scoring statistic may play a key role (Matteo ranks 2nd for the category after the first round). Back to back wins are very much on the cards.
