Bradley Neil makes solid start in Australian PGA Championship

Bradley Neil has made a steady start to the Australian PGA Championship.

The Blairgowrie golfer posted a level par 72 on day one to sit joint 37^th.

Andrew Dodt holds a two-shot lead after play was suspended on the Gold Coast.

Australian Dodt took advantage of calmer morning conditions to card an impressive round of 65 before the threat of lightning saw play brought to a halt.

England’s Paul Waring is among a group of six, which includes Adam Scott, on four under par while Adam Stephens is three under par with eight holes of his first round still to play.

Neil and Stephen Gallacher are joint-top Scots in the clubhouse on their 72s.
