Tommy Fleetwood took inspiration from his Ryder Cup team-mate Shane Lowry to edge into a one-shot lead at the DP World India Championship in Delhi.

The Englishman emulated his playing partner’s opening-round 64 after getting off to a fast start on day two with five of his eight birdies in his first nine holes.
