NAPLES, Fla. — Bernhard Langer shot a 10-under 62 on Friday to take a four-stroke lead in the PGA Tour Champions' Chubb Classic at TwinEagles.

Langer made 11 birdies, including five straight birdies from Nos. 3-7 and Nos. 14-18. Using a long putter, he made a 35-footer on No. 9 and a 40-footer on No. 17.

The 58-year-old German star went on to win in 2013 after also opening with a 62. In the past seven years in Naples, Langer has two victories, two seconds, a tie for third and a tie for fourth. He was in contention last year before withdrawing to attend to a family matter.
