Colin Montgomerie and Joe Durant shared the lead at 5-under-par 67 on Friday after the breezy first round of the Champions Tour’s Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic in Saucier. Montgomerie finished with a birdie on the par-4 ninth hole at Fallen Oak. The Scot won the Senior PGA Championship and U.S. Senior Open last year. The four-time PGA Tour champion is winless on the 50-and-over tour. The Spaniard won the season-opening event in Hawaii in January for his second victory in three career Champions Tour starts. Jesper Parnevik also struggled, making a triple bogey on the par-3 third in a 76. Welshman Oliver Farr missed the chance to take the outright lead at the Trophee Hassan II in Agadir, Morroco, after making a bogey on the last hole, and was in a four-way tie after a 4-under 68. Farr had four birdies on the back nine to share the lead with Scotsman Richie Ramsay, Spaniard Rafa Cabrera-Bello and Australian Richard Green at 6-under 138.
