The Maridoe Samaritan Fund Invitational is underway at Maridoe Golf Club in Carrollton, Texas, with Tuesday's first round in the books.
Scottie Scheffler is leading the way in the elite flight at six-under par. The 23-year-old sunk eight birdies opposite two bogeys. He has never won a PGA Tour event but notched a career-best third-place finish at The American Express in late January.
The PGA Tour has been inactive since mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic.
This tournament is a COVID-19 relief fundraising effort, as Golf Channel's Brentley Romine explained:
"The members-only competition will be separated into three flights by handicap, including an 'elite flight' playing at nearly 7,900 yards, and top professional finishers will receive cash payouts from a purse of $27,000.
