Tee markers were moved back to normal after 61 siz zling players in the 149 man field Rory themselves on sub par scores to start the $30,000 event Thursday. Already Arnold Palmer of Miami Fla and ex University of Southern California golfer Al Geiberger took the biggest bite. They fed the field with under par 66s. The Blythfield Country Club course plays to a par of 36 35 71. Punched in a six pack one stroke behind the leaders were Michigan raised Dave Hill, Don January of Dallas, Doug Sanders of Miami Beach, Sam Snead, Teri Kroll of Fort Lauderdale, and host club pro John Barnum.
