DP World Tour : Hero Dubai Desert Classic Leaderboard
With day 1 of the 35th version of the Dubai Desert Classic this year sponsored by Hero at the Emirates CC, Canada's lone representative on the DP World Tour Aaron Cockerill has made a bright start with an opening round -1 71 T27.
In his first start of 2024 the Winnipeg area native has flown from -27*c dead of winter, to 27*c and the beautiful sunshine in the desert around Dubai, that's enough to make all of us happy, even without playing golf !
He began on the par 5 10th with a birdie 4, added another on the 16th surrounded by bogey at 15 and a double at 17 after a wild drive into the bushes resulting in a penalty stroke, then a 3 putt for 6, but out in +1 38
Making the turn at the first he was all pars then a run of birdies at #5, 6 and 7, just missing a 6 footer for birdie at #8. The 9th is a 488yds par 4 over water. From the rough he hit his second safely over the water, but well over the green, took a free drop, 3rd to the fringe, 2 putted for bogey 5. back in -2 33.
The leaders are at -5, Haotong Li, Andy Sullivan , Cam Young and Rasmus Hojgaard all with 67's
