ROUND 1 Sunny 62* wind 13-24 MPH (*LIV Players).
1 Justin Rose(110/1)-7 65 birdies 1st 3 holes pars AC only bogie on 18.
He has been 1st after the first RD in 5 Masters but has not won.
2 Scottie Scheffler-4 68 Bogie free RD 4 birdies. I f he can continue to stay away from the bogies and DBs he should win. Rd 2 will be important and should be in the top 5.
2 Corey Conners-4 Birdies 3 of last 4 holes.
2 Ludvig Aberg-4 68 Only 1 bogie on 4 then birdies 4 of last 7 holes.
*5 Tyrrell Hatton-3 69 Bogie free until 17.

History says 1 of top 5 should win, 18 of last 19 winners were within 4 shots of lead but with Rose up 3 may change this.

27 Rory McElroy E 72 In 2nd place thru 14 with no bogies, but hits his pitch on 15 goes over the green into water for DB, then another poor pitch on 17 for another DB. They say you can’t win a tournament on the 1st RD, but you can lose it, McIlroy could have lost it on 15&17.
