Lara leads in Spain

John Daly and Colin Montgomerie were left with plenty of ground to make up as a fierce pace was set in the first round of the Spanish Open in Girona today.

Jose Manuel Lara gave the home crowd plenty to cheer about by returning a seven-under-par 65 - only one outside the PGA Golf Catalunya record - to lead by one from England's Chris Wood, the 21-year-old who as an amateur finished fifth in The Open last summer.
