Daly under par at Pebble

Looks like John Daly's decision to step away from the game for what amounted to about 17 hours two weeks ago may have done him some good. Daly posted a 1-under 69 in the first round of the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Real question is can he hang on to make a cut or is retirement another 78 away? We'll know by the weekend.

There really is some star power on the links this week, and I'm not just talking about Kenny G and his majestic man music. Sergio Garcia is making his season debut, while other notables include Mickelson, Scott, Weir, Duval, Singh, (Vijay not Jeev Milkha) and Furyk.

The tournament is being played on a three course rotation including Pebble Beach (PB), Spyglass Hill (SH), and Monterey Peninsula (MP) with the championship round at Pebble Beach.

Here's the skinny on scoring:

- Dustin Johnson is leading at 8-under, 64 (PB)
- T2 are J.B. Holmes and K.J. Choi at 7-under, 65 (both played PB)
- Duval shot 5-under, 67 (SH)
- Weir shot 5-under, 67 (PB)
- Mickelson shot 2-under, 68 (MP, par 70)
- Garcia shot 2-under, 68 (MP)

Stay posted to see who plays the weekend.

Cheers,
