Kuchar shoots 64 for early Phoenix lead

Scoring conditions were ideal during the first round of the Waste Management Phoenix Open, and several big names were able to take advantage. Here's how things look after the first day at TPC Scottsdale, where Matt Kuchar holds a slim early advantage:

Leaderboard: Matt Kuchar (-7), Hideki Matsuyama (-6), Brendan Steele (-6), John Peterson (-5), Scott Brown (-5), Robert Garrigus (-5), Chris Kirk (-5), Byeong-Hun An (-5)

What it means: Matsuyama entered as the defending champ, and he set the pace before Kuchar slid past him late in the afternoon.
