""Cory Crawford, James Nitties and Dale Williamson have all fired rounds of 6-under par 66 at the Grafton District Golf Club in perfect scoring conditions.

Crawford got off to a flying start to his round finding himself 5-under par through his first 6 holes in a round which included seven birdies and just the one bogey on the 16th Hole.

“I hit the really well today especially as it was my first time seeing the course, I felt I didn’t make as many putts as I could have but still really pleased with my round," said Crawford.

Nitties round included nine birdies and three bogeys coming at the 3rd, 6th and 11th holes.

"I was so impressed with the layout of this course it’s a very good test of golf for a country golf course and the greens were perfect out there, a credit to all involved," said Nitties

Williamson managed to remain bogey-free for the day, the highlight of his round an eagle at the par 5, 11th hole, where he hit a wedge from 100 metres in for his second shot.

The next best placed professional was Leigh McKechnie fishing with a round of 5-under par 67 for outright second position.
