He then had back to back bogeys on 6 and 7 to make the turn at +2. Birdies at 10 and 11 put him back to even before he birdied the 18th to card his 71. Mark Phillips started hot with a birdie at the first which he gave back at two before making birdies on 3, 5 and 6 to get to -3.
A lost tee shot at the 9th resulted in a double bogey 6 making Phillips -1 at the turn. He made 9 straight pars on the back nine including an up and down from 20 yards on the final hole after finding trouble off the tee to card his 71. The full leaderboard is here.
