Magical Muntz delights home fans at KLM Open

All the talk might be of Europe’s Ryder Cup hopefuls, but it was Rolf Muntz stealing the early headlines at The KLM Open first round.

The Dutchman, who has not won a tournament since he scooped the Qatar Masters title eight years ago, bounced back to form with a flawless six under par round of 64.

It gives him the clubhouse lead in just his fifth event on The European Tour this season, while his nearest rival is Jean-Baptiste Gonnet three strokes further back.

No fewer than five other players - including Justin Rose - are also on three under.

Muntz looked impressive from the start, collecting birdies at the second and sixth in a front nine of 34, but it was coming back in where he looked strongest.

He picked up strokes at each of the tenth, 11th and 12th holes before sinking another birdie putt at the par four 16th.
