Lam leads as Harrington falters in Singapore

Ernie Els and Oliver Wilson were within a shot of clubhouse leader Lam Chin Bing at the weather-interrupted Barclays Singapore Open today when darkness ended play at Sentosa Golf Club with half the field yet to finish their first round.

After a lightning storm halted play for more two hours, Lam completed his opening round on four-under 67, one stroke ahead of Australia’s Marcus Both and three ahead of Austria’s Markus Brier, Korea’s Charlie Wi and China’s Zhang Lian-wei in the US dollars 5million Asian Tour event.
