France's Sebastien Delagrange was disqualified from the Irish Open today for signing the wrong score at the 16th hole during yesterday's first round.

"I signed for a 73 and it should have been a 74," said Delagrange, who realised his mistake on reporting for the second round.

"I accidentally signed for a four on the 16th when it should have been a five".

Mark Roe and Jesper Parnevik were both disqualified from the British Open last Saturday over a scorecard mix-up in the third round.
