Lowry started the back nine birdie-birdie-eagle-birdie and holds the first-round lead by one over Hideki Matsuyama, winner of the Genesis Invitational, and Justin Lower.
Sahith Theegala, Russell Henley, Sam Burns and Lee Hodges are in a group sitting T-4 at 4 under. Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas and Will Zalatoris highlight those at 3 under.

It also ties for No. 191 on Golfweek’s Best list of all modern courses in the U.S., and it ties for No. 58 on the list of all resort courses in the U.S.
