Fleetwood back with a bang to lead the way at BMW PGA Championship

Tommy Fleetwood shook off seven weeks of rust in style to set the pace in the first round of the BMW PGA Championship.

Fleetwood carded eight birdies in a flawless opening 64 at Wentworth, the Ryder Cup star covering his last seven holes in six under to lead by one from fellow Englishman Matthew Jordan.

Former Open champion Shane Lowry, who was in the same group as Fleetwood, is two shots off the lead following a bogey-free 66, while Rory McIlroy and defending champion Billy Horschel both shot 68 despite heavy rain showers making conditions difficult.

1️⃣4️⃣ combined birdies. Superb opening rounds, @TommyFleetwood1 (-8) and @ShaneLowryGolf (-6)
