A superb putting display helped unheralded Canadian Graham Gunn grab the lead on the opening day of the inaugural Sicilian Senior Open on the European Senior Tour.
On only his fifth appearance of the season, Gunn outshone some of the Senior Tour’s leading lights – including home hero Costantino Rocca and all-time leading career money winner Carl Mason of England – with a four under par round of 68 to lead by two strokes from Argentina’s Horacio Carbonetti and Spaniard Domingo Hospital.
Incredibly, Gunn needed just 24 putts at Il Picciolo Golf Club, on the holiday island of Sicily, where driving rain rendered low scoring doubly difficult. His lead would have been even more commanding were it not for a double bogey at the par three eighth, where he lost his ball after overclubbing.
