Stewart Cink has taken a one-shot lead at the end of the first round of action at the Farmers Insurance Open.
The 40-year-old hit three successive birdies on the North Course at Torrey Pines to finish his round on eight-under 64.
"You want to really take advantage of the North Course because it will yield to you a little bit, and the South Course will not," ESPN quotes him as saying.
"I did a great job of going out there, just playing shot-by-shot, not really getting too caught up in, 'I have to birdie these holes.' As a consequence, I actually made a few birdies and it felt great."
Gary Woodland is second on the leaderboard, while Jason Day, Tyrone van Aswegen, Marc Leishman and Jim Herman are all tied for third place.
Meanwhile, world number one Tiger Woods failed to birdie any of the par-fives and was forced to settle for a 72.
