It\u2019s going to be one helluva wild ride today by the looks of it.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s made birdie on the first in benign conditions, just an outstanding morning for scoring at The Lakes, but has just dunked his ambitious second shot into the par-5 11th into the drink. It was well short of carrying the water to reach the green. The groans just reverberated through the gallery. He ends up making a pretty good two-putt from another postcode once on the green. But it\u2019s a bogey and he\u2019s back to even for the tournament.<\/p>\n<p>Matt Jones has no worries though and signs for a birdie to go to three-under for the tournament. Adrian Meronk also finds water on the hole and is back to two-over. Cut, anyone?<\/p>\n<h2>ICYMI: Meet our shock Open co-leader<\/h2>\n<p>Rachel Lee skipped classes to play in the Australian Open this week. And having started her journey in \u201cgolf daycare\u201d, she finished the day as the talk of the town.<\/p>\n<p>From the age of 10, she would head to her local club for a couple of hours after school and hit golf balls into a net. At first, she didn\u2019t like it much. But for her parents, it certainly beat paying childcare fees.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/static.ffx.io\/images\/$zoom_0.327%2C$multiply_0.7725%2C$ratio_1.5%2C$width_756%2C$x_0%2C$y_0\/t_crop_custom\/q_86%2Cf_auto\/9c6fad796eb27b0268826e792eadea9f831fa676\" height=\"390\" width=\"584\"><\/p>\n<p><span>Rachel Lee shot six-under in her opening round.

He carded an even par 72, and no doubt his mood wasn\u2019t pleased with a bogey six on the par-5 closer.<\/p>\n<p>Fun fact: his third shot into the green landed about two feet from me behind the putting surface. I lose it in flight and it almost got me. In typical Adam Scott fashion, he walked up to the ball, asked everyone in the gallery how they were going and just got on with his business. Didn\u2019t help him finish the hole in style though.<\/p>\n<p>His playing partner Matt Jones was much more content with his two-under 70, which included a two-shot penalty on the first hole for a rules infraction. I suppose it\u2019s better to have it on the first hole rather than 72nd.<\/p>\n<p>Funny game, golf.<\/p>\n<h2>Welcome to the second round<\/h2>\n<p>Hello everyone and welcome to the second round coverage of the Australian Open from both The Australian and The Lakes.<\/p>\n<p>Smell that?
