JIM FURYK LEADS IN FLORIDA

Jim Furyk is the clear leader at a US PGA Tour event for the first time sine his last victory on the tour 20 months ago.
He holed two monster birdie putts and, just as important, a 12ft putt on the last green to save par in totting up a six-under-par 65 at the Transitions Championship at Innisbrook Resort's Copperhead course, Palm Harbour in Florida.
Stephen Ames was one shot behind after a 66.
The group at 67 included Kenny Perry.
