Leading duo predict more low scores

Swede Jarmo Sandelin and Denmark’s Soren Hansen both began the Canaries Spanish Open with eight-under-par rounds of 64 today – and then said they would not be surprised to see somebody shooting the European Tour’s first-ever 59.

At a Costa Adaje course on Tenerife which has six reachable par fives, wide open fairways and precious little rough the scoring was low right from the start.
