Sean Crocker produced two brilliant bursts of scoring as he fired a course-record 63 to lead by a single shot on the opening day of the 2022 Hero Open at Fairmont St Andrews.

The 25-year-old American picked up six shots in five holes on the front nine after going birdie-birdie-birdie-eagle-birdie from the third.

And after dropping his only shot of the day at the tenth, he made four birdies in his next five holes to get to nine under par and stand alone at the top of the leaderboard.  Read more

From Sky Sports:

Crocker later admitted nine missed cuts earlier this season had been "mentally the toughest thing I've gone through".

America's Sean Crocker carded a course-record 63 to top the leaderboard after a day of remarkably low scoring in the Hero Open.

Crocker recorded an eagle and eight birdies at Fairmont St Andrews to finish nine under par, a shot ahead of a five-strong group which included England's Ashley Chesters and Ben Stow, the world number 1,719.  Read more
