5 golfers are tied at 4-under 66 when darkness fell on the 1st round of the HP Byron Nelson Championship. The round was held up for almost 3 hours with a lightning delay. One of those tied at the top is Joe Durant. After starting his round on hole #10, Durant was 1-over par with three holes to play, then proceeded to go eagle, eagle, birdie on 7,8 and 9 to finish his round at 66.
16 year old Jordan Speith stands at even par after 11 holes and is in 38th place. The #1 junior in the USA played in front of a big local crowd which included a large contingent of his high school buddies from Jesuit High School in Dallas.
Play will resume tomorrow morning at 8:15am. I'm looking forward to following Jordan on his last 7 holes.
