BOURNEMOUTH'S Georgia Hall made an excellent start to the Turkish Open as she continued to raise eyebrows amongst the golfing elite.

The Parkstone-affiliated player carded a one-under-par 72 at Carya Golf Club in Belek.

Featuring in only her third Ladies European Tour event as a full-time circuit member, Hall had led a strong field at one stage before three bogeys in the final six holes saw her slip slightly.

Hall is currently tied for 10th with the vast majority of the field still out on the course or yet to tee off.
