Harrington, Kieffer share lead at Irish Open

Blustery conditions humbled many of the world's best at Royal County Down, but a three-time major champ was still able to move to the top of the standings. Here's how things look after the first round at the Irish Open, where Padraig Harrington shares the lead:

Leaderboard: Padraig Harrington (-4), Maximilian Kieffer (-4), Soren Hansen (-3), Danny Willett (-2), Soren Kjeldsen (-2), Emiliano Grillo (-2), Luke Donald (-1), Alexander Levy (-1)

What it means: The winner on the first day was the course, as only 13 players from the 156-man field broke par at Royal County Down.
