Australian Cameron Smith is once again at the top of the leaderboard after finishing the opening round with a 5-under 67 on Thursday.

“A little bit of a grind,” said Smith of his round. “Had to make a few good pars on that last nine for me, the front nine. It was just good to kind of hang in there, make a few birdies, see a few putts going in. I think this is about as easy as this place is going to get today. I think it’s going to be a lot of stressful golf and a lot of grinding over the weekend. Nice to kind of take the box there early in the week.

“Usually takes us two or three holes to kind of figure out what’s going on. The greens around here are about as good as it gets. You know they’re going to be consistent. Just really need to hit fairways, being able to control the ball into the greens. The rough was quite sticky today. So off the fairways the course was giving up a few shots, I think, but just great.”

Joining him at the top are Americans Cameron Young, Luke List and Davis Riley, Canadian Mackenzie Hughes and South Korean K.H. Lee.

“I got off to a really nice start,” said Young. “I kind of scrambled my way to a pole around 11 and made a really nice putt on 12 and 13, and then the eagle [at the par-5 15th] was obviously a nice little bonus in the middle.

“I just hit a bunch of good shots early and made kind of the crucial little saves to kind of keep that momentum going with some pars.”

Tied in seventh place at 4-under are Americans Will Zalatoris, Denny McCarthy, Sahith Theegala and Wyndham Clark.

Defending champion Patrick Cantlay of the USA made just two birdies and two bogeys for a 72 and is T48.

American Bryson DeChambeau, playing for the first time since the Masters after having surgery on his left hand, shot a 76 and is T96, as is compatriot Patrick Reed.

Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama has been disqualified for a non-conforming club (rule 4.1a).
