Still, he finished with an impressive eight-under-par 64 for a five-stroke lead on Winnipeg’s Derek East and Toronto’s Albin Choi, who carded three-under-par 69s.

John Neufeld, of Courtenay, B.C., and Thomas Hay, of Langley, B.C, are next at two-under, each firing a 70.

Saskatoon’s Jesse Gibson sits tied for sixth, seven shots back of the leader, after a 71. Jonathan Kim-Moss, of Mississauga, Ont., and Bryan Lichimo, of North Vancouver, also shot 71.

“It wasn’t easy,” Jung said of his 64. “The wind was picking up. My putting went really well. I was draining everything. Everything went well for me. I got some lucky breaks, also.”

Jung missed a four-foot putt for par on No. 17. “That got me mad,” he said. “I tried to calm down and get focused. Unfortunately, I misjudged my second shot (on No. 18) and that caused me to bogey.”

Saskatoon’s Troy Bulmer and Humboldt’s Mark Herperger each shot a 73. Brad Blair of Lanigan had a 74, Furdale’s Jordan Arndt carded a 75 and Saskatoon’s Mark Diakiw struggled for a 81.

On the junior girls’ side, Michelle Lee of Mississauga, Ont., and A Ram Choi, of Surrey, B.C., lead after opening rounds of even-par 72.

The three-day CN Future Links Prairie championship continues today at 7:30 a.m. at the Willows and wraps up Thursday.
