EDDIE Pepperell tees off at his first tournament for more than a month this morning.
The Frilford Heath member is in action at the Gran Canaria Lopesan Open in Spain, having not played since he tied for 64th at the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters on the second weekend of March.
Pepperell, playing alongside home golfers Eduard Rousaud and Alvaro Quiros, begins his first round at 9.20am GMT.
The 30-year-old will be looking to kick-start his year after dropping to 195 in the world.
He missed the cut at his first two tournaments of 2021, in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, but reached the weekend in Qatar.
A disappointing final two rounds saw Pepperell drop out of contention, though, so he will want a more consistent showing in Spain.
