RAS AL KHAIMAH, United Arab Emirates — Callum Shinkwin went on a spurt of 10 birdies in 11 holes on the way to shooting 10-under 62 and taking the first-round lead at the Ras Al Khaimah Championship on the European tour. The No. 143-ranked Shinkwin was 10-under par after 14 holes at Al Hamra Golf Club to raise the potential for a rare round of 59. The Englishman bogeyed No. 7 to dash those hopes. He bounced back with an 11th birdie of the round by two-putting from 70 feet at the par-5 No. 8. Shinkwin leads by two strokes from compatriot Richard Mansell and Brandon Stone of South Africa.
