DeLaet leads Canadian contingent at Frys.com in California

PGA Tour Fry's.com Open leaderboard http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/frys-com-open/leaderboard.html

There has just been a two week break since the 2015 season ended, along with all the excitement of the Solheim and President Cups, but here we go again already with the 2016 season officially underway in the beautiful Napa valley and I must say there is a pretty strong field

Graham DeLaet seems to be fully recovered from the thumb injury that forced him to withdraw from the RBC Canadian Open ending his season as he leads the 5 Canadians here this week after a -5 67, T7. Nick Taylor and David Hearn both had -1 71 while Adam Hadwin is in at 72. Cory Renfrew won the Monday qualifier shot +1 73.

Rory McIlroy is on his way from Florida to Asia for the finale to the Race to Dubai and he has stopped off here on route for some much needed competitive play. He opened with -4 68 and trails the leader Brendan Steele who posted a 29 on the back nine before making the turn and finishing with -9 63 for a one-shot lead over Jhonattan Vegas in ideal scoring conditions at Silverado. Vegas really needs to save himself as he has lost his card, didn't make the Web.com Tour Finals and is playing here as part his limited status as a past champion (2011 Humana Challenge)

Rookie Harold Varner III, had a nice debut with a 65 a shot ahead of a group at 66 then Justin Thomas and Justin Rose are in another pack at 67.

Sang-Moon Bae is the defending champion, and he is in the army now in South Korea, so is unable to defend.
