Kevin Streelman, helped by a tip from his coach and inspired by his beloved Chicago Cubs, fired a sizzling nine-under-par 63 to lead the PGA Tour's Sanderson Farms Championship by two strokes in Jackson, Mississippi on Thursday. Taking advantage of ideal conditions on a steamy day of low scoring at the Country Club of Jackson, Streelman mixed 10 birdies with a lone bogey to soar to the top of the leaderboard after the opening round. Swede Carl Pettersson holed out from 162 yards to eagle the par-four 16th en route to a 65 and a tie for second with American Trey Mullinax and Ireland's Seamus Power, while 2009 U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover was one of seven players on 66.
