A good day tomorrow gets me right back in it,\u201d said the six-time major champion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere were a couple of things that were tough today. Obviously the wind and the strength of the wind was one thing, and then the pace of play.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis course isn\u2019t conducive to sort of letting you get in a flow. Especially the first two days with so many people in the field, there is a lot of stopping and starting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Niemann made four birdies in a row from the 14th to forge ahead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a really tricky course and a really fun golf course to play with, especially with the Irish weather,\u201d said the Chilean. \u201c(I\u2019m) getting used to this weather and the rain, so it was fun.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Delays caused by the conditions meant that some players will have to return early on day two to complete their opening rounds.<\/p>\n<p>Home favourite Shane Lowry is among a five-strong group, two shots behind Niemann after a 67.<\/p>\n<p>Adrian Meronk, Maximilian Steinlechner and Renato Paratore were also at three under when bad light brought their opening day to an end without completing their rounds.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Rahm was level par on a rare appearance back on the DP World Tour.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>self.__next_f.push([1,\"10:I[67601,[\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/26feds4rxab-x.js\\\"],\\\"WebVitalsReporter\\\"]\\n11:I[39683,[\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/26feds4rxab-x.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/24ffxgjp1o9tz.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/2cvdaqdj6b3le.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/25xqmyko4bd1p.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/1zszwruo21klp.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/04hvlg7gpzexw.js\\\"],\\\"SearchForm\\\"]\\n12:I[22016,[\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/26feds4rxab-x.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/24ffxgjp1o9tz.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/2cvdaqdj6b3le.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/25xqmyko4bd1p.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/1zszwruo21klp.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/2mi1-7ppvquss.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/226t4xcplwk6z.js\\\",\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/08_m29c1udgp4.js\\\"],\\\"\\\"]\\n13:I[79520,[\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/26feds4rxab-x.js\\\"],\\\"\\\"]\\n14:I[32700,[\\\"\/_next\/static\/chunks\/26feds4rxab-x.js\\\"],\\\"ChartbeatTracker\\\"]\\n2:[\\\"$\\\",\\\"html\\\",null,{\\\"lang\\\":\\\"en\\\",\\\"dir\\\":\\\"ltr\\\",\\\"className\\\":\\\"playfair_9b22208d-module__j_-Mhq__className
