(Reuters) - England's Callum Shinkwin fired a six-under par 66 to carve out a one-stroke lead after the first round of the 100th edition of the KLM Open in Amsterdam on Thursday.

The 26-year-old struck three birdies and an eagle on the par-five third, offset by a single bogey, to turn in 32 and added two more birdies on the back nine to emerge as the clubhouse leader at The International.
