Moore to the fore in CIMB Classic


First round leader of the CIMB Classic Ryan Moore

AMERICAN Ryan Moore outshone his more illustrious PGA Tour stars like Phil Mickelson and Ernie Els by going on a birdie binge to score a spectacular nine-under 63 – and a two-stroke lead – on the opening day of the CIMB Classic at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club (KLGCC).

World No. 45 Moore recovered from an opening bogey setback to finish on top after notching 10 birdies on the trot to lead from Major champion Keegan Bradley, who shot a flawless 65 on the challenging course.
