Mayakoba Golf Classic: Danny Lee leads on the PGA Tour after the opening round.

Danny Lee leads on the PGA ToursMayakoba Golf Classic after the first round. The New Zealander scored a round of -9 to take the lead in front of Brendon Todd and Adam Long, who are tied for second place. After a round of 62 Danny Lee leads by 1 shots and posted 1 eagle during his first round.
"Definitely, it was in my head, 59 or 58," Lee said. "I never shot that score out on the PGA TOUR before, so I really wanted to make that happen. On 14, I had a 3% downhill, less than 15-footer for birdie. Just one of those days I felt like I can make anything. I just gave a little too much extra and hit it through the break and missed the next one coming back. I was a little bit bummed out on that one," he said. "But still, 9 under is a great start."
