Paul Peterson makes PGA Tour debut at age 36 and leaves an impression

HONOLULU (AP) — The Sony Open is the PGA Tour stop where introductions are in order, and Paul Peterson made quite the first impression. He opened with a 6-under 64 and shared the lead with five others Thursday on a pleasant day at Waialae.

Harry Hall, Denny McCarthy and Eric Cole, all of whom got an early start in Hawaii last week at Kapalua, also opened at 64 along with Adam Schenk.

Tom Hoge, who tied for eighth in Kapalua, had the only 64 in the afternoon in a round that featured two eagles.
