Sweden's Robert Karlsson has made a flying start to the second round of the Scandic Carlsberg Scandinavian Masters today.
Karlsson, attempting to become the first home winner of the event since 1998, picked up four shots in three holes in Malmo this morning to jump into a share of the lead.
Starting on the 10th hole, he opened with a par on the tough 448-yard par four but then birdied the 219-yard 11th, one of three holes revamped ahead of this year's tournament and September's Solheim Cup.
He then eagled the par-five 12th and birdied the 14th to be four under par for his first five holes and five under for the tournament.
That was good enough to make it a four-way tie at the top of the leaderboard alongside overnight leaders Nick Dougherty and Andrew Coltart and former Ryder Cup captain Mark James.
Dougherty dropped a shot on his opening hole, the 10th, but birdied the 16th. Coltart has yet to tee off.
