The 27-year-old native of Listowel, Ont., who teed off in the opening group, found himself tied for the lead of the Masters after finishing his first round. AUGUSTA, GA.—Canadian Corey Conners has continued his improbable roll at one of golf’s biggest tournaments. Justin Harding of South Africa, finishing about an hour after Conners, grabbed a one-stroke lead with a 69. Conners took sole possession of the lead with an eagle at the par-5 15th, which followed two straight birdies. But a three-putt bogey on the 18th dropped him back into a tie for top spot.
