Golf: Handy start for Brown

New Zealand golfer Mark Brown has returned to form in the opening round of the latest European PGA Tour event in Spain.

Brown is in a tie for second after a carding a four under par 66 to be one shot behind the leader Paul Lawrie.

Meanwhile, Michael Campbell's struggles continue in his warm-up event before the Masters.

Campbell has carded an eight over par 80 in the first round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational in Orlando.
