LUTZ, Fla. — Defending champion Tom Watson shot an 8-under 63 to take a three-stroke lead over Mark Wiebe and David Eger in the Outback Steakhouse Pro-Am.
The five-time British Open champion shot a 7-under 28 on his last nine hole, the front nine of the TPC Tampa Bay, missing just two birdie putts — a 12-footer on No. 2 and a 20-footer on No. 8. He hit 16 of 18 greens in regulation.
Wiebe is coming off a victory April 6 in the Cap Cana Championship in the Dominican Republic.
