Talor Gooch shot a bogey-free 7-under 63, tying for the lead with Sebastián Muñoz and Jason Kokrak after the first round of LIV Golf Greenbrier. Notably, U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau struggled, posting a 68, a stark contrast to his record 58 from the previous year. Jon Rahm and Brooks Koepka, both having faced challenging seasons, scored 64, while Tyrrell Hatton and four others recorded 65. A total of 37 players from the 54-man field broke par, including Anthony Kim at 69. Gooch, who previously excelled on the PGA Tour, is seeking his first victory of the year, currently ranked 11th on the points list after leading last year with three wins.
