Rocco Mediate ties course and Senior PGA record with 62 (The Associated Press)

BENTON HARBOR, Mich. (AP) -- Rocco Mediate played the first 13 holes in 9 under and closed with five pars for a 62 to match the Senior PGA Championship and Harbor Shore records Thursday.

Taking advantage of greens softened by overnight rain, Mediate matched the marks set by Kenny Perry in the 2012 final round.

''It wasn't wet, as far as soaking wet. A couple wet spots. But it was fine,'' Mediate said. ''Greens were good. Soft. They received pretty good. ... I know it rained like heck last night. I heard it last night.
