"You can make some birdies early on this golf course," Roberts said. "Starting with No. 8, there isn't an easy hole on the golf course."

The scores reflected that with the five co-leaders combining to shoot 13-under on the front nine of the Baltimore Country Club's East Course.

Fred Funk, Nick Price, Danny Edwards, Dana Quigley and Chip Beck were at 68 while Jay Haas, Hale Irwin and Tom Watson shot 69.
