Dougherty is on the level
3:09pm Friday 1st February 2008
CHORLEY'S Nick Dougherty shot a level par 72 on the opening round of the Dubai Desert Classic.
The 25-year-old opened and closed with a bogey, but birdies on the 5th, 10th and 13th kept him in contention.
Tiger Woods though is the one they all have to stop again.
He carded an opening round seven-under-par 65 to open up a two stroke overnight lead.
Abu Dhabi Golf champion Martin Kaymer had a chance to stand alone in second spot, a shot adrift of the 2006 champion, but the European Tour Rookie of the year dropped a shot after seeing his par putt flirt with the edge of the hole.
The German is joined on five-under-by 10 others.
