THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. (AP) David Toms had a hole-in-one in his round of 6-under 66 on Friday, good enough for a share of the first-round lead with Jeff Maggert at the PowerShares QQQ Championship.
Toms used a 5-iron to ace the 188-yard third hole at Sherwood Country Club. He birdied his next two holes and made three more birdies on the back nine.
The 50-year-old Toms is winless in his first season on the PGA Tour Champions and sits 30th in the Charles Schwab Cup standings. The tournament is the second of three Schwab Cup playoff events.

The 53-year-old Maggert, who hasn’t won in more than two years, went bogey-free in his round of 66.
Jesper Parnevik was one shot back. Miguel Angel Jimenez and Scott Dunlap were another shot behind.
Schwab Cup points leader Bernhard Langer made a 12-foot putt to salvage bogey on the par-4 18th and shoot 69. The 60-year-old German star won last week in Richmond, Virginia, and has all but wrapped up his ninth money title in 10 seasons on the over-50 tour.
