Round one of the 2011 Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines is in the books, with South Korea’s Sung-hoon Kang holding the early lead at 8-under. He birdied on six holes, eagled on the par-five hole 14, and shot for par on every other hole. This is his second-ever PGA Tournament event; he missed the cut at the Sony Open earlier this month.
