Davis and Owen in contention in Texas
England’s Brian Davis and Greg Owen lie two shots behind first-round co-leaders Paul Goydos and Justin Leonard at the Valero Texas Open following a day of low scoring on Thursday at La Cantera near San Antonio.
Owen, in his first year back on the US PGA Tour having lost his card at the end of 2007, and Davis, fresh from his top-10 finish at last week’s Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass, each shot five-under-par 65s on the par-70, 6,896-yard Resort Course, to end the day in a tie for sixth place.
