Late birdie show helps Furyk to Barclays Classic lead

Jim Furyk birdied five of his final nine holes to finish at six-under-par 65 and hold a three-shot lead after the first round of the Barclays Classic in New York.

Furyk, the 2003 US Open winner, bogeyed the ninth hole to go out in 35 but birdied the 10th and 11th to start his run at the Westchester Country Club.
