LIV Golf Singapore: Colombia’s Sebastian Munoz finds his rhythm and season’s best form to lead first round at Sentosa
- The South American shot a six-under-par 65 at Sentosa to sit on top of a stacked leaderboard, where just two shots separate the top 15 players
- Brooks Koepka and Abraham Ancer in a group of six tied for second a shot further back, with Joaquin Niemann one of eight players on 67
Sebastian Munoz produced the best round of his LIV Golf season in Singapore on Friday, and said he felt his game was finally moving in the right direction.
The Colombian fired a six-under-par 65 at Sentosa Golf Club to sit on top of a stacked leaderboard, where just two shots separate the top 15 players.
Brooks Koepka and Abraham Ancer were among a group of six players in a tie for second a shot further back, with Joaquin Niemann, who has won twice on the circuit this year, one of eight players who carded a 67.
By his own admission, Munoz has not had a great year, and finished in a tie for 38th in Adelaide last week. His best finish was ninth in Las Vegas in February, when he was seven under after three rounds.
“For the past couple of events, I haven’t been able to hit it where I want to, so it just makes golf a lot tougher,” Munoz said.
“I felt like the first round in Adelaide [one over] kind of hit me hard. Both my teammates played really good, and I kind of played poorly towards the end, and I kind of got a little rhythm the next two rounds and now here with a better round.
