SUTTON COLDFIELD, England: Thorbjorn Olesen shot a 6-under 66 to share the lead after the opening round of the British Masters on Thursday (Friday in Manila) in his bid to end a four-year title drought and get his career back on track after a damaging court case.

Olesen's last win was at the Italian Open in June 2018. He was suspended by the European tour the following year after being accused of sexually assaulting a woman and being intoxicated on a flight following a World Golf Championships event in Tennessee.
