Luke Donald has the lead after the first round of The Memorial after firing a first round 64 which included a streak of six consecutive birdies and just 20 putts.
Tiger Woods turned his weakness so far this season into his strength by hitting 13 out of 14 fairways. Obviously, he has been working very hard on accuracy off the tee with his coach, Hank Haney, and so far it has paid off. Tiger is five shots off the lead after shooting 69.
It is nice to see David Duval up on the leaderboard again after shooting a 1 under 71. Hopefully he can keep it up. It still amazes me that before Tiger, Duval was the #1 player in the world.
Jason Day keeps up the momentum from his fourth place finish last week to shoot five under and get his name into the spotlight. Only 21, he is one of the next expected young guns and has been showing a great game as of late.
