CROMWELL, Conn. (AP) - Scottie Scheffler and Tom Kim gorged themselves on pizza to get their shared birthday celebration out of the way before turning their focus to golf this week.
When they tee it up on the big day, they'll be fighting for the lead at the Travelers Championship.
Kim shot an 8-under-par 62 on Thursday in the first round at the TPC River Highlands, good for a two-stroke lead in the final limited field, no-cut signature event on this year’s PGA Tour schedule. Scheffler, the world's No. 1 player, was tied for sixth, three shots back.
Kim will turn 22 on Friday, and Scheffler is exactly six years older. The Dallas-area residents marked the occasion in advance by heading about 30 miles south to Sally's - a New Haven institution.
