CHONBURI, Thailand (AP) -- Jamie Donaldson of Wales enjoyed a sizzling opening round of 9-under-par 63 to take a three-stroke lead over three players including 2013 winner Sergio Garcia in the Thailand Championship on Thursday.
Donaldson, who hasn't won in 16 months, birdied his first four holes and the last two at Amata Spring Country Club, and said, ''I couldn't really do things wrong.
''I never really missed any fairways. The good par save on nine was the key to keep the momentum going after pushing the tee shot a little bit. I got up and down there from about 20 feet.
