Victor Dubuisson is the first Blue on the leaderboard (11th, -5). Dubush ended his day in 69 (-3), notably returning an eagle to 7. He spoke after his game: “ It’s never easy to leave like that in the morning, given the conditions I didn’t try to attack but rather to aim for par. There are a lot of shots with the left-right wind, which is a shot that I don’t like too much, so a little in difficulty on that but I can rely on my little game to score”.
Langasque, the beautiful ascent
One shot behind Dubuisson is Romain Langasque. Starting at +1 this morning, the Frenchman had a perfect day: a card of 67 (-5) with an eagle at 18 and an approach that fits!
