England’s Harry Hall features among a six-way tie for the lead after the first round of the Sony Open in Hawaii.
The 27-year-old carded 10 birdies on Thursday to nab a share of the lead at six under par.
He had multiple opportunities to nab the outright lead, but was hampered by bogeys on the fourth and 17th holes, along with a double bogey on the eighth.
Hall shares a one-shot lead with Adam Schenk, Eric Cole, Denny McCarthy, Tom Hoge and Henrik Norlander.
Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama carded a three under 67 following his record-breaking victory at the first tournament of the calendar year last week.
His score of 35 under for The Sentry set a PGA Tour record for the lowest 72-hole score in relation to par.
