England's Todd Clements is one shot behind course leader Ashun Wu after posting a six-under 64 in the first round of the Omega European Masters at Crans Montana. Clements notched six birdies and an eagle alongside two bogies in an impressive opening day performance that puts him into contention, holding a share of second place with Germany's Nicolai von Dellingshausen, India's Shubhankar Sharma, Spain's Angel Ahora, and South Africa's Lawrence Thriston. Wu - of China - ended the round with a 63, after making seven birdies and avoiding a single bogey as he looks to claim his sixth career DP World Tour win.
England's Harry Hall and Jack Yule also remain in the mix heading into the weekend, with both players just two shots off the lead after posting a seven-under 65, with Yule in particular impressing with a five-birdie back nine. Dan Bradbury, Paul Casey, and Joshua Berry round out the English contingent at the top of the leaderboard with a share of 25th after all three players ended the round on a three-under 67, with fellow countrymen Matt Wallace and Marco Penge one shot below on two-under.
