India's top golfer Anirban lahiri put up an impressive show with a 3-under 69 to be tied 10th on the opening day of the Hero World Challenge here on Friday.
lahiri, who was paired with the defending champion and world number one Jordan Spieth, started on the right note with a one-under on the first hole and kept the momentum.
Spieth, 22, was in top form as he got an ace on the second hole much to the delight of the spectators and lahiri gave him a high five.
Spieth made a hole-in-one with a 6-iron and finally added a birdie on a par 5 to join a large group at 67 T-4.
If Spieth's ace was the talk of the opening day's action, then lahiri's cool play also kept the Indian fans glued to his progress on his debut appearance in the event.
