Senior British Open 2022: Stephen Ames, Glen Day Share Lead After Round 1

Stephen Ames and Glen Day are pacing the field through the first round of the Senior Open Championship at Gleneagles in Scotland.

Ames and Day shot six under Thursday to claim a one-stroke advantage on Paul Broadhurst, Jerry Kelly, Kent Jones and Darren Clarke.

The 58-year-old was at one under when he made the turn and immediately moved up the leaderboard thanks to an eagle on No. 10. The Canadian remained bogey-free for the remainder of the round as he looks to win his first major tournament in the senior circuit.

Day didn't get off to a great start as he bogeyed No.
