Day 1 of the 2013 Irish Open is in the books, and there are plenty of great story lines to examine from the first round at Carton House Golf Club.

Wet course conditions were expected to produce some decent opening-round scores, and several players took full advantage. When play completed for the day, 12 players were at four under or better, including Day 1 leader Oscar Floren at six under with a 66.

But some notable names were excluded from the top of the leaderboard—specifically, Rory McIlroy.



The world No. 2 has struggled mightily this season, and his trouble continued at Carton House with a two-over 74 for the day. Given the favorable scoring conditions of the course, McIlroy will struggle to recoup the eight strokes that currently separate him from Floren.

Let’s take a look at the leaderboard after Day 1 and highlight a few of the top players from the opening round.

 

Place Player Score To Par 1 Oscar Floren 66 -6 T2 Michael Hoey 67 -5 T2 Joost Luiten 67 -5 T2 Peter Uihlein 67 -5 T2 Jean-Baptiste Gonnet 67 -5 T2 Shane Lowry 67 -5 T7 Jose Maria Olazabal 68 -4 T7 Mikael Lundberg 68 -4 T7 Andrew Dodt 68 -4 T7 Cian McNamara 68 -4 T7 Thomas Bjorn 68 -4 T7 Paul Casey 68 -4 T13 Jamie Donaldson 69 -3 T13 Marc Warren 69 -3 T13 Graeme Storm 69 -3 T13 Simon Thornton 69 -3 T13 Robert Rock 69 -3 T13 Raphael Jacquelin 69 -3 T13 Rafa Cabrera-Bello 69 -3 T13 Garth Mulroy 69 -3 T13 Pablo Larrazabal 69 -3 T13 Anders Hansen 69 -3 T13 Chris Paisley 69 -3 T13 Estanislao Goya 69 -3 T13 Seamus Power 69 -3
