The Open: Shane Lowry off to a flier with opening birdie at Royal Portrush
And will Portstewart-man-at-heart Jon Rahm follow that up? He has every chance after a super second which tickles down the hill to inside 10 feet for birdie at the first.
Edit: No such luck for Rahm and it's an opening par.

Gareth Bale emphatically rules out professional golf career
Gareth Bale admitted he was "100% sure" that he could not become a professional golfer. The former Real Madrid and Wales star is well known for his love of golf and has cut his handicap from "three or four" to just 0.1 since retiring from football in January 2023. That has led to suggestions that Bale - who has played on the PGA Tour at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-am where footage of him making a brilliant chip from a cart path went viral - could try and make it as a professional golfer, despite having turned 36 earlier this month. "I'm fully, 100% sure, I can not make it professionally," Bale told BBC Wales ahead of this week's AIG Women's Open at Royal Porthcawl. "When you are in golf and you see professional golfers play, compared to even your best stuff, it is nowhere near. "When I've played with those players and watched them, you really appreciate how good they actually are. "Never mind just playing with your friends, they are doing it under the most severe pressure, in tournament conditions, in hard weather. "So there won't be any professional (golf) for me.
