JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- Roberto Castro shot a 10-under 62, his lowest score on the PGA Tour, to take a two-shot lead Thursday in the Sanderson Farms Championship.
The 30-year-old Castro was consistent and avoided trouble all afternoon with a bogey-free round in nearly ideal conditions for low scores. He made 10 birdies - five on each nine at the Country Club of Jackson.
Conditions were forgiving thanks to a course softened by rain and very little wind. That could change in the coming days - more rain is expected starting Friday.
But there were plenty of birdies for the taking during the first round and several players took advantage - 103 of the 122 players who finished the first round shot par or better.
