Poulter setting the standard

England’s Ian Poulter added a hole-in-one to his stunning opening 61 – but still found his lead cut to just one shot at the weather-disrupted Italian Open in Rome.

Poulter made a sluggish start before kick-starting his bid to regain the title he won in 2000 by holing his four-iron tee-shot from 200 yards on the 16th hole - his seventh – on his way to a second round 67.
