BETHESDA, Md. (UPI) -- Anthony Kim, winless since he captured this
event a year ago, fired a course-record 8-under 62 Thursday for a
two-shot lead at the AT&T National.
Kim was one of the hottest golfers in the world for much of 2008,
claiming two victories during the year, starring in the American Ryder
Cup triumph and finishing among the top three in five other
tournaments.
He had had limited success this year, however, until finishing among
the top 20 the past two weeks at the U.S. Open and Travelers
Championship.
Kim's 62 was the lowest score ever posted at the Congressional Country
Club, a course that hosted the U.S. Open in 1964 and 1997 and a PGA
Championship in 1976. After starting on the back nine, Kim birdied
five holes in a six-hole stretch beginning at the third.
Tiger Woods, who hosts this tournament and is playing for just the
ninth time this year, shared second place at 64 with D.A. Points and
Bryce Molder. Steve Elkington, Daniel Chopra, Jim Furyk and Stuart
Appleby were all at 66.
Michael Allen, winner of the Senior PGA Championship this year,
continued his surprising run on the regular tour. Having made the cut
in 10 of his 14 tournaments this season, he opened this week with a
67.
Newly-crowned U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover, who was paired with
Woods for the first round, shot a 69.
