THE CJ CUP Byron Nelson: Rory McIlroy was off to a good start as he started in search of a record fourth Wells Fargo Championship golf title as his 4-under 67 left him three shots behind leader Xander Schauffele (64). Collin Morikawa and Alex Noren also shot 67, and Justin Thomas topped the group at 68.

Indian American Sahith Theegala (73) was T-49 and Akshay Bhatia (74) was T-60 in the $ 20m Signature event that does not have a cut.

Korean star Sungjae Im shot a solid 3-under 68 for tied fifth place as he bounced back from illness last week. The two-time PGA TOUR winner hit five birdies against two bogeys at Quail Hollow Club in the sixth Signature event of the season and trails first-round leader Xander Schauffele, who fired a fine 64 which included a touch of good fortune for a three-stroke lead over Collin Morikawa, Alex Noren and Rory McIlroy. Quail Hollow is one of McIlroy's favourite courses. In 2010, McIlroy closed with a 62 that included six straight 3s on his card to win his first PGA TOUR title two days before he turned 21.
