Weir shoots 65 for share of lead

Mike Weir just finished saying that water-logged Glen Abbey could only get firmer and faster when a clap of thunder forced him to reconsider.

'Maybe not with what's coming. Maybe not,' Weir said.

That was about the only time he was off-target Thursday in the first round of the Canadian Open. Trying to become the first Canadian winner since 1954, Weir shot a bogey-free 6-under 65 for a share of the lead.

Anthony Kim, Eric Axley, John Huston, Sean O'Hair, Chez Reavie and Jason Day also opened with 65s, and John Senden and Scott McCarron shot 66s. Huston, O'Hair, Reavie, Day, Senden and McCarron completed the round Friday morning in sunny conditions on the course saturated by 8 inches of rain in a week.
