Masters live updates | Rahm in 3-way tie for lead at Masters
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Jon Rahm overcame a four-putt double bogey on the opening hole to finish at 7-under 65 and tied for the first round lead with Viktor Hovland and LIV golfer Brooks Koepka at the Masters. Cameron Young and Jason Day are two shots back after posting 67s on Thursday. Defending champion Scottie Scheffler is three shots back after shooting 68. There was some question over whether Rahm, the world’s No. 3 player and a three-time winner on the PGA Tour, would be able to regain his momentum after a rough March that included back-to-back rounds of 76 at the Arnold Palmer Invitation, withdrawing from the Players Championship because of a stomach illness and an early exit at the WGC-Dell Match Play event. Five-time Masters champion Tiger Woods shot 74.
