AGADIR, Morocco -- Alejandro Canizares of Spain had 11 birdies in a 10-under round of 62 to take a one-stroke lead over Seve Benson of England after the
first round of the Trophee Hassan II on Thursday.
Akiem Hicks Bears Jersey . Canizares mastered the windy conditions at the Golf du Palais Royal course in Agadir for the lowest
round of his European Tour career, and it would have been even better if not for
a bogey on the third hole. "It was one of those days for me, my swing felt
great, I started putting well and the putts went in. It was a lot of fun, when
golf is like this its easy," Canizares said. "I missed a couple of drives and
from the fairway I missed one shot that cost me a bogey, but that was about it."
Benson, who was named after the late Seve Ballesteros, had nine birdies to stay
two shots clear of American golfer Connor Ardenell and Swedens Magnus Carlsson,
who were tied at 7 under. "It was so windy out there on the back nine, but I
just managed to play the tough holes well and sink some putts," Benson said.
"Capitalizing on my chances is the big thing for me. I have been working really
hard with my putting coach and it paid off today." Arendell finished eighth at
Qualifying School in November to earn his card for this season, but missed the
cut in his first four events. "Its huge, coming over here getting that
experience, the travelling; week to week the courses vary quite a bit compared
to the U.S.," Arendell said. "Its tough, but over time it will make it that much
easier when Im in the U.S."
