Cabrera-Bello makes flying start in Dubai

Spain’s Rafael Cabrera-Bello managed something even Rory McIlroy was unable to do as he surged into contention for the season-ending DP World Tour Championship on Friday.

McIlroy birdied four of the first five holes on the Earth Course at Jumeirah Golf Estates on his way to an opening 66 which gave him a share of the lead with Shane Lowry on six under par.
