Gonzalo Fernández Catsaño (-3) got off to a good start in the Scottish Open after shooting a 67, three under for the day at the Gullane Golf Club, landing him currently at four shots away from the sole leader, Luke List, but at the top of the rankings, two shots from the top ten.
The Spanish golfer, who started off in the last game of the day, did very well on the putt and was also quite secure around the green, finishing the round with five birdies and two bogeys, aving taken advantage of the only two par 5s on the course with a birdie on each hole.
In theory, the fact that he’ll be playing a bit earlier on Friday may make things easier, and birdies will continue to be a necessity on a course where almost one hundred golfers finished below par in the first round, and if the wind doesn’t pick up, the cut could be established at up to -3 relatively easy. The golfer from Madrid will play in the second round starting at 12:00 noon (Spanish time).
