RIDGEDALE, Mo. – Tom Pernice Jr. and Scott Hoch teamed to shoot a 9-under 62 on Friday in best-ball play at Ozarks National to take the first-round lead in the PGA Tour Champions' Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf.
The teams of Shaun Micheel-Loren Roberts, Ken Tanigawa-Gene Sauers and Roger Chapman-David Frost were a stroke back.
Pernice and Hoch had five straight birdies in the middle of the round.
''I got going early and I just kept filling it up and hitting some good shots,'' Hoch said. ''I told him early, I said, ''Hey, I'll get the front, you get the back,'' and that's kind of what happened.
