Wyndham Clark leads the way after a disrupted Round 1. Darkness forced an early end to the first day but Clark came back and finished his round in the morning and takes a two shot lead into Round 2.

We currently have a four way tie at the top of our LMS leaderboard with Alan, Andrew, Lewis and Lee all on -8. The next three entries in the top 10 are also on -8, meaning there could be a big shift in Round 2!

At the other end of the table, Jimmy probably won’t be challenging for the prize pot as he’s currently on +20 after picking Si Woo Kim – 45 (+7), Viktor Hovland – 50 (+6) and J.J. Spaun – 55 (+7).

Unfortunately for 64 entries Jason Day withdrew after completing 10 holes so those entries are out of the comepition.

There were no withdrawals before all the golfers teed off, so the prize pot remains at £12,250, which is split as follows:

1st – £9,175

2nd – £2,450

3rd – £625

Top 10

After Round 1, the top 10 is as follows:

1st – Alan farley 2 -8 (-6,-3,1)

1st – Andrew Yeman -8 (-6,-3,1)

1st – Lewis Donnelly -8 (-6,-3,1)

1st – Lee Marshall 2 -8 (-6,-3,1)

5th – BOGEYS 3 -8 (-6,-2,0)

6th – Richard Cook 2 -8 (-4,-3,-1)

6th – Adam mcbrinn 2 -8 (-4,-3,-1)

8th – Raymond Armstrong -7 (-6,-1,0)

8th – Scott Moorhead -7 (-6,-1,0)

8th – Kyle Rawlinson 2 -7 (-6,-1,0)

The predicted cut currently stands at +2, so the entries with Scottie Scheffler – 6 (306), Patrick Reed – 50 (165), Chris Gotterup – 45 (103), Tyrrell Hatton – 33 (101), Cameron Smith – 70 (100), Cameron Young – 18 (92), Aaron Rai – 70 (85), Maverick McNealy – 80 (70), Adam Scott – 110 (70) and Viktor Hovland – 50 (68) will all be sweating today as they are in danger of missing the cut.
