Play is well underway in the first round of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open. 

Ireland’s Graeme McDowell, Seamus Power and Gavin Moynihan are currently out on the course while Padraig Harrington and Paul Dunne will begin in the afternoon.

The Australian was in the first group that commenced at 6.45am but that didn’t seem to bother him as he hit the back nine with three birdies in a row. 

And Ormsby says he was also happy to conclude the round with another. 

He’s been joined since by France’s Mike Lorenzo-Vera and South Korea’s Hyowon Park.
