Holywood teenager Rory McIlroy made a good start in Antwerp
Holywood schoolboy Rory McIlroy fired an impressive three-under-par 69 in Wednesday's first round of the European Amateur Championship in Belgium.

The 16-year-old carded six birdies and three bogeys in his round at Antwerp Golf & Country Club.

McIlroy, who has won the West of Ireland and Irish Close titles so far this season, was two shots behind early leader Robin Swane of Holland.

Dunmurry's Darren Crowe made a poor start and was three over after nine.
