A six-under-par 66 was good enough to give American Dean Wilson the lead after one round of the Zurich Classic in New Orleans.
Four shots were picked up by the 38-year-old from the 13th to the 18th, with Wilson shooting seven birdies in total as he stormed to the top of the leaderboard in the US PGA event.
Americans Briny Baird and Chez Reavie and Australia's Peter Lonard were one shot behind Wilson on five-under.
Wilson said after his round: "When I haven't shot many scores under par, to come out here and shoot six-under on a course which I think is a real fair test and it some wind like this, I'm real happy with it.
While after holing a 208 yard five wood on the sixth, Baird commented: "To be honest with you, I hit it just a touch thin, but it was exactly what the shot called for," Baird said. "Being a little thin it stays under the wind a little bit better."
