Carlos Aguilar Quesada from Spain leads after round 1 at El Valle

Carlos Aguilar Quesada is the man currently to catch as he set the pace this week at the Polaris World El Valle Open with an opening round of 66 on the par 71 Nicklaus layout. Aguilar had the 2009 event in his hands last year but finished but ran into some trouble on the final 3 holes so he is out for some revenge this year. One shot behind is Ross Cameron(SCO) and Robert Sture (SWE). The first round was suspended due to lack of light due to the rain and dark clouds that came in this afternoon.

Play will commence tomorrow at 8:00 with better weather in the forecast.

Entering the final week of the 2010 Polaris World Hi5 Pro Tour swing, the Hi5 Pro Tour is making its own history this week. 128 players representing 17 different countries from around the globe will set a new record for the Hi5 Pro Tour which is in only its third season. El Valle Golf resort which is part of the Polaris World Jack Nicklaus Golf trail will be the host club this week. A unique course meandering through a series of rock bluffs which has naturally been carved through centuries of water courses. The par 71 course is definitely one of the great Jack Nicklaus’s best designs in Europe with featuring severe run offs on the greens which will demand precise distance control for the professionals this week. Defending champion is Marius Thorp from Norway.

The event will begin on Tuesday at 8:00 a.m.
