Poulter returns from layoff, shares lead in Macau

IAN Poulter returned from a four-month layoff because of a foot ailment to take a share of the lead at the Macau Open with an opening-round 64.

Poulter and Spain’s Carlos Pigem were tied at 7 under par yesterday and had a one-shot lead over Thailand’s Chapchai Nirat, who had three birdies and an eagle over his last eight holes to finish with a 65 in China’s Macau. Australia’s Marcus Fraser experienced back spasms at the start of his round and, after taking some pain medication, finished with a 66, tied with India’s Anirban Lahiri at 5 under. Poulter had five birdies on the outward nine in his first round back since missing the cut at Colonial in late May.
