India’s Anirban Lahiri continued his fine run as he opened the inaugural St Andrews Bay Championship with a superb 6-under 66 that gave him a share in the six-way lead, which also included compatriot Veer Ahlawat, on the first day here.

Lahiri, who was second in Liv Series and third last week at Newcastle, shared the lead with another Indian, Ahlawat, Chile’s Mito Pereira, Spain’s David Puig, South African Jaco Ahlers, and Andrew Dodt of Australia.
