Brian Stuard shoots 64 to take Zurich Classic lead (The Associated Press)

AVONDALE, La. (AP) -- Brian Stuard shot an 8-under 64 on Thursday to top the leaderboard in the suspended first round of the Zurich Classic.

The 33-year-old Stuard had only 21 putts in his bogey-free round at TPC Louisiana, finishing his final hole after a rain delay of nearly five hours. He's winless on the PGA Tour.

None of the afternoon starters were able to finish before darkness suspended play.

Retief Goosen was second after a 65. The 47-year-old South African is a two-time U.S. Open champion.

Top-ranked Jason Day bogeyed his final two holes for a 69.
