Well, would you look at that. Marcus Kinhult actually decided to show up and play some golf, and the rest of the DP World Tour field apparently forgot to pack their A-game. He kicked off the Nexo Championship with a blistering 5-under 67, and honestly, that pretty much sealed the deal. Turns out, being good on Thursday is a surprisingly effective tactic. Go figure.
The other guys made a valiant effort, bless their hearts. Eliot Baker and Benjamin Follett-Smith managed to claw their way to a tie for second at 3-under. Andrew Wilson and Félix Mory also found themselves in that same little 3-under club. Nice fellas, all of them,
