Puerto Rico Open 2012: Matt Jones, George McNeill Lead After First Round

The first round of the Puerto Rico Open is in the books, and though the heavy hitters on tour are on the links at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, there’s still plenty of fun to be had at Donald Trump’s Puerto Rico golf course.

The two co-leaders after the first 18 are Matt Jones and George McNeill, each of whom shot a 66 for rounds of -6. Behind them is a veritable logjam, as no one really did much to separate themselves from the competition. Ben Curtis is the only player one stroke back (-5), but there are four players — Jeff Overton, Kevin Kisner, Todd Hamilton and Daniel Summerhays — tied at four-under. After them, there are 13 players at -3, including former Master’s champion Angel Cabrera.

This tournament’s still anyone’s to win, and with a grand prize of $630,000 and 250 FedEx Cup points up for grabs, this one’s sure to get better over the weekend.
