Round One of the Valero Texas Open is in the books, and it’s Scotland’s Russell Knox who finds his name at the top of the leaderboard.
Knox fired four straight birdies on the back nine en route to an opening round 7-under 65.
The 36-year-old holds a one-shot lead over Denmark’s Rasmus Hojgaard, who shot a first-round 66 despite making double bogey on his final hole.
Knox’s birdie streak began at No. 12. One of the highlights of his round was a 20-foot chip-in on hole 15 – his second chip-in of the day.
