FLOURTOWN, Pa. (AP) -- Jay Don Blake birdied three of the last five holes Thursday at windy Philadelphia Cricket Club for a 2-under 70 and the first-round lead in the Constellation Senior Players Championship.
Blake had five birdies and three bogeys in windy conditions on the A.W. Tillinghast-designed Wissahickon Course.
The 57-year-old Blake won the last of his three senior titles in 2012. He won at Torrey Pines in 1991 for his lone PGA Tour victory.
Vijay Singh bogeyed the par-4 18th to fall a stroke back along with Jeff Sluman, Brandt Jobe and Bart Bryant.
