Allen Doyle shares Senior lead

PARKVILLE, Mo., June 11 (UPI) -- Former Senior PGA champion Allen Doyle birdied the final hole Friday to share the lead after one round of the Bayer Advantage Pro-Am.

The winner of eight titles on the elder tour, including the 1999 Senior PGA, Doyle carded a 7-under-par 65 at the National Golf Club of Kansas City. He was tied with Andy Bean and John Harris.

All three players are seeking their first victory in a season that has produced 11 different winners on the Champions Tour.

Morris Hatalsky and Mark James were tied for fourth at 66, one shot ahead of a group of seven golfers that included Bruce Fleisher.

Fleisher and Hale Irwin are the only over 50-players to win twice this year. Irwin was tied for 22nd after firing a 70.
