Billy Andrade, Jose Coceres Share Champions Tour Lead
DES MOINES, Iowa — Bill Andrade and Argentina's Jose Coceres share the first-round lead at 6-under 66 on Friday in the Champions Tour's Principal Charity Classic.
Andrade had seven birdies and a three-putt bogey on No. 14 at Wakonda Club. The four-time PGA Tour winner teamed with Joe Duran to win the Legends of Golf in April for his first Champions Tour title.
Coceres, from Argentina, had six birdies — four on the final seven holes — in his bogey-free round. The two-time PGA Tour champion is winless on the 50-and-over tour.
Defending champion Tom Pernice Jr. was a stroke back along with Mark Calcavecchia, Paul Goydos, Michael Allen, Brian Henninger, Grant Waite and Jeff Coston.
