HAMBURG, Germany — Paul Casey of England defied windy and rainy conditions to shoot a 6-under 66 Thursday and take a one-stroke lead after the opening round of the European Open.
The four-time Ryder Cup player, who said he has been struggling for several days with a sore throat, started late and had to deal with increasing winds in the afternoon but still carded seven birdies and a bogey at the Green Eagle Golf Course.
