SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Nev. -- Carolina Panthers receiver Adam Thielen took a one-point lead over playing partner Mardy Fish on Friday after the first round of the American Century Championship.

Thielen had an eagle and three birdies at Edgewood Tahoe in a 24-point round under the modified Stableford scoring system. Players receive a point for par, three for birdie and six for eagle and two points are deducted for double bogey or worse.

"It makes it easy playing with a guy like this that is so consistent and good tempo, makes good shots all day," Thielen said about Fish, a former tennis player.
