Shane Lowry carded a six-under 65 to grab the solo lead after the first round of the RBC Heritage, while Dustin Johnson made a solid start on Thursday.
Lowry produced a bogey-free opening round in South Carolina, holing six birdies to take a one-stroke lead.
Five players, including Ryan Moore and Ryan Palmer, are one shot back at five under, while another eight are two shots adrift.
Billy Horschel and Patrick Cantlay are part of that group.
Looks like @RyanPalmerPGA has it rolling.
