John Cook and John Huston shot 9-under 63s on Friday to match the course record and share the first-round lead in the Montreal Championship, the Champions Tour's lone Canadian event.
Cook, a two-time winner this year, and Huston, coming off his first victory on the 50-and-over tour, each had 10 birdies and a bogey on the Fontainebleau Golf Club course on Canada Day. They matched the course mark set last year by D.A. Weibring in the inaugural tournament.
Cook had a chance to break the course record, but his 8-foot birdie putt on 18 skirted the left side of the cup.
"It broke a little more than I thought," Cook said. "I thought that it was going to break pretty good to the left, but I didn't think that it was going to swing quite that much and it swung across the hole. I hit it perfect speed so I hit a nice putt."
