 | | ADAM SCOTT of Australia plays his shot from the eighth tee during the Fort Worth Invitational at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas. | |
|
DAY ONE AT THE MASTERS:
THE LEADERS - Bryson DeChambeau, Brooks Koepka (66); Phil Mickelson (67); Dustin Johnson, Ian Poulter (68)
THE AUSSIES - Adam Scott (69, tied sixth); Cameron Smith, Jason Day (70, tied 11th); Marc Leishman (72, tied 29th).
BEST ROUND - DeChambeau and Koepka, 66
TALKING POINT: Day's back injury. The former world No.1 needed to be stretched out by his trainer on the second hole but remarkably finished the round at two under.
QUOTE OF THE DAY - "I should have pulled the flagstick out. Or, I should have had (my caddie) go out there and pull it out or tend it." - DeChambeau on nearly holing his second shot for eagle at the par-4 18th.
