IGPL Morocco Rising Stars: Trishul Chinnappa staged a great recovery on his second nine with five birdies in the last six holes to move into the top 10 in the first round of the USD 160,000 IGPL Morocco Rising Stars.

He was Tied-eighth with three other Indians, Sudhir Sharma, Raghav Chugh and Syed Saqib Ahmed. They were three shots behind the leader Hoho Yue of Hong Kong, who shot 6-under 66.

Like Chinnappa, Saqib also had a fine second nine with three birdies, while Sharma, who started the round in the very last group of the day, had an eagle on his first nine. Chugh, who teed off in the second group in the morning, had five birdies against two bogeys.
