BEL OMBRE, Mauritius — Thorbjorn Olesen, Wang Jeung-hun and Carlos Pigem all opened with a 6-under 65 Thursday for a share of the first-round lead at the inaugural Mauritius Open.
The three were the early pacesetters on the Indian Ocean island in a new tournament shared by the European, Asian and South African golf tours.
Denmark's Olesen picked up six birdies in his opening nine after returning from a three-month injury layoff. South Korea's Wang had six birdies and didn't drop a shot at Heritage Golf Club at the Domaine de Bel Ombre resort on the south coast.
