DUBLIN, Ohio — Adam Hadwin bounced back from the disappointment of missing the cut at last week's Canadian Open to take a one-shot first-round lead at the PGA Memorial tournament in Ohio on Thursday (Friday in Manila).

The 36-year-old from Saskatchewan was left bitterly dismayed last week after bombing out on home turf at the halfway stage of Canada's biggest tournament, but shrugged off that gloom to fire a six-under-par 66 at Muirfield Village.
