KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- Ryan Moore, despite an opening-hole bogey, fired a 9-under-par 63 Thursday in grabbing the first-round lead at the PGA Tour's CIMB Classic in Malaysia.
Moore twice had three-birdie runs and moved in front when he made a 25-foot birdie putt at the 16th hole. He then placed his approach within inches of the hole at 18 for another birdie. His round included birdies at all four of the par 3s at the West Course of the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club.
