Canada's Mackenzie Hughes fired a 10-under par 60 to seize an early three-stroke lead over top-ranked Rory McIlroy in the opening round of the PGA Travelers Championship. NEW YORK: Mackenzie Hughes fired a 10-under-par 60 on Thursday at TPC River Highlands to seize a three-stroke lead over top-ranked Rory McIlroy in round one of the PGA Travelers Championship.
Four-time major champion McIlroy of Northern Ireland had six birdies and an eagle against a lone bogey to stand second behind fellow back-nine starter Hughes in the clubhouse as the afternoon wave took to the course. Hughes began his birdie binge with a 30-footer from the fringe at the par-3 11th, then reeled off five birdies in a row to close the back side, his first nine of the day.
McIlroy said he was not concerned about having a hot start despite the low scores typical at River Highlands.
