An takes lead at Australian Open

Hun An overcame four-seasons-in-one-day type weather to take a onestroke lead after the first round of the Australian Open.

The South Korean’s eagle on the par-5 eighth hole, his second-last of the day, gave him a 5-under 67 on Thursday at The Lakes.

Australians Matt Jager and David Micheluzzi, an amateur, were tied for second with 68s.

The group tied for fourth, two strokes behind, included Marcus Fraser and Abraham Ancer. (AP)
