Scotland's Michael Stewart may just have one of the most remarkable opening round stories at this year's Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.
After finishing second at the Tartan Pro Tour event on Wednesday in Duddingston, the Scot travelled to the Alfred Dunhill Links and posted a 65 at Carnoustie to hold a share of the first round lead.

Fellow co-leader, Jack Buchanan, is seeking his own turn around of fortunes.
The 24-year-old comes into this event after back-to-back missed cuts, but matched Stewart's bogey-free 65 with one of his own at Kingsbarns.
"It's been a bit of a struggle this year," he said "Kind of missed a few cuts by one. I definitely feel like I'm becoming a better player before it starts to click a little bit.
"Last week I felt like my iron play was good and struggled off the tee but was in play off the tee today. So I was able to take advantage of that."
Padraig Harrington is the only player to have teed up in all 24 previous editions of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship, lifting the title in both individual and team events in 2002 and 2006.
He extended that unbroken run to 25 on Thursday, while Sir Steve Redgrave extended the same record on the amateur side of the competition.
Less than a month after holing the winning putt at the Walker Cup from Great Britain and Ireland, Josh Hill teed off at Kingsbarns for his first professional start.
The Ryder Cup Captain delighted the fans with his final shot of the day, a bunker hole out for birdie on the ninth at Carnoustie!
