BLAINE, Minn. Ray Rice Youth Jersey . —Gil Morgan was
happy to shoot his age Friday, yet slightly disappointed his score wasnt even
lower. The 65-year-old Morgan shot a 7-under 65 on Friday for a share of the
first-round lead with Chien Soon Lu, Steve Pate and Peter Senior in the
Champions Tours 3M Championship. “I didnt have too many mistakes, I didnt miss
many greens, but I had a few opportunities that kind of slipped away
putting-wise,” Morgan said. He had a bogey-free round, but missed four putts in
the 6- to 10-foot range, while making a handful of long ones, including a
40-footer for birdie on the par-3 13th. Joel Edwards, Tom Jenkins and Mark
McNulty were a stroke back. Past event champions David Frost, Bernhard Langer
and D.A. Weibring were at 67 along with Joe Daley, Jeff Hart and Willie Wood. On
an ideal sunny day with a slight breeze early, 49 of 81 players shot below par
at the TPC Twin Cities, where the fairways are wide and the greens soft. “The
way the course is playing its going to be a traffic jam up at the top this
year,” Senior said. “Unless we get some real strong wind … I think its going
to be 20 under to win this week or if youre going to have a chance.” Starting on
the back nine, Morgan birdied five of seven holes midway through his round to
put himself atop the leaderboard. It is the second time in two years that Morgan
has shot his age. He had a 64 last year in the Toshiba Classic. Anywhere near
the front of the field has been an infrequent occurrence for the oft-injured
Morgan, whose latest ailments include elbow surgery last year and a sore wrist
now. He has only one top-25 finish in 11 starts this year, five in his last 27
overall. In his last 75 tournaments dating to 2008, his best finish is third. He
won the last of his 25 Champions Tour titles in 2007 at Pebble Beach. “The last
couple of years have been strange. Ive had a few injuries that have plagued me a
little bit, but at the same time I havent played very consistently. Ive had some
really low rounds at times, but I cant seem to put it together for three
rounds,” he said. “A round like this will say that, Hey, you can still do it a
little bit. Hopefully, I can continue it at least a little bit for the rest of
the week.” Senior, who tied for second last year, made four birdies in a
five-hole stretch to get to 5 under, then had birdies on Nos. 6 and 7—on his
back nine—to move into a tie for the lead. “I had a couple of unfocused
bogeys, but all in all, Im pretty happy with the days play,” he said. “Its
always great to be up there after the first round.” Pate had his best round on
the 50-and-over tour. He worked with Dave Stockton on his putting for about 20
minutes Thursday and switched from a belly putter to a traditional one this
week. The 51-year-old Pate birdied five straight holes early in the round and
hit every green in regulation. “My security blanket on short putts is gone, but
I made some. I made four putts outside 15 feet, I havent done much of that,”
said Pate, who has finished 20th or worse in six of his past seven events. “I
switched to the belly putter maybe two months ago and putted well for three
weeks and then it just got awful again. Try something different.” Lu had eight
birdies and a bogey. Tom Lehman, the former University of Minnesota player who
teamed with Arnold Palmer to design the course, had a 68. Lehman grew up in
Alexandria, Minn. Defending champion Jay Haas opened with a 71. Ed Reed Youth Jersey . Numbers Game looks at

Darren Helm has agreed to a four-year, $8.5 million deal to remain with the
Detroit Red Wings. General manager Ken Holland announced the contract Tuesday.
Helm, a 25-year-old centre, had nine goals and 17 assists in 68 games last
season. He had surgery on a tendon in his right arm after he was hurt in Game 1
of a first-round playoff series against Nashville. Joe Flacco Jersey. The Red Wings lost in five
games. Helm was drafted in the fifth round by Detroit in 2005. He had a
career-high 12 goals and 32 points in 2010-11. He has 16 points in 65 career
post-season games. ’ ’ ’
