Meanwhile, Bryson DeChambeau has apologised to his club manufacturers Cobra for saying his driver 'sucked' during his first round.

The American struggled to find the fairway, ending the day one over par.

DeChambeau posted on Instagram calling his comments 'very unprofessional' and saying it was he, rather than his equipment, who sucked.
