DOHA, Qatar — A 13-year-old golfer has shot 3-over 75 in the first round of the Qatar Masters to give himself a chance of making the weekend in just his second appearance in a European tour event. Daniil Sokolov is a Russian national who represents Qatar and who is in the field courtesy of an invitation. He was 2 under after four holes but picked up four bogeys and a double to drop into a tie for 105th when play was suspended with 12 players yet to finish their round on Thursday. Sokolov also played the Qatar Masters last year at the age of 12, shooting rounds of 78 and 82 to miss the cut.
