Casey quickly into his groove

Six British players won their first round contests at the Accenture Match Play Championship on Wednesday and nobody was more impressive than world number 26 Paul Casey.

Casey winters in nearby Scottsdale, and though it’s a little too far to make the commute daily, he at least feels in his comfort zone, as he demonstrated by shooting an unofficial nine-under 63 to edge Swede Robert Karlsson two-up.
