INCHEON, South Korea — Antoine Rozner shot a 9-under 63 to lead the Korea Championship by four strokes after the first round of the European tour event Thursday.
The bogey-free round tied the lowest in the Frenchman’s professional career and contained nine birdies at Jack Nicklaus Golf Club, including six in his first nine holes.
Rozner’s three European tour wins have come since 2020.
Park Sang-hyun of South Korea and Andy Sullivan of England were tied for second place after rounds of 67.
