Florida, Oct 24: Brendan Pappas fires a 9-under 63 to take the first round lead at the Funai Classic at Walt Disney World in Florida.
Pappas had 10 birdies on the Magnolia course to lead the field at 9-under 63. He was even after five holes, before reeling off nine birdies in the next 11 holes to open a one-stroke lead over Vijay Singh, John Huston and Pat Perez.
Pappas, who is 49th on the money list, can shoot great when he's on. He bogeyed the last for 62 at the tour event in Mississippi three weeks ago to finish second, and he also once shot 28 for nine holes in his native South Africa. Singh, who is locked in a fight with Woods for the money title, helped his cause with a bogey-free round at the Magnolia.
