Jason Kokrak and Englishman Paul Casey share a first-round lead over LIV Golf Mayakoba after shooting rounds of 6-under-par 65 in Mexico’s Playa del Carmen on Friday.

The tournament kicked off the second season of LIV Golf at El Camaleon, a course designed by LIV CEO Greg Norman. It is LIV’s first foray into Mexico and the first time to host a tournament at a course that has hosted PGA Tour events.

Kokrak and Casey have a two-shot lead over Peter Uihlein, Talor Gooch and Mexico’s Carlos Ortiz, who shot 4-under 67.

Kokrak and Casey shot their 65s in very different ways. Kokrak scored six birdies, including a chip-in, and remained bogey free.

“With my type of game, I don’t always get a chance to play a bogey-free round,” Kokrak said.

Casey, meanwhile, started his round with a birdie on the par-4 sixth and was 5 under before taking a double bogey on the par-4 second hole. He recovered by finishing his round with three straight birdies at number 3-5.

Gooch was the only other player to go bogey-free on Friday.

Dustin Johnson, last season’s individual champion and captain of the defending team champions 4Aces, is tied for sixth at 3-under 68 with Charles Howell III, England’s Ian Poulter, Australia’s Marc Leishman and South Africa’s Branden Grace.

LIV’s highest-ranked player, World No. 5 Cameron Smith of Australia, ranks only 11th at 2-under 69.

Casey and Howell helped Crushers take the team lead at 10 under by one lap. India’s Anirban Lahiri contributed a 1-under 70.

The top three scores for each four-man team count towards each round of team scoring. Crushers captain Bryson DeChambeau was the odd one out for his team after opening with an 1-over 72 that included a double bogey-bogey-bogey stretch.

Crushers have a three shot lead over Johnson’s 4Aces and Brooks Koepka’s Smash, each at 7 under. 4Aces had contributions from Johnson, Uihlein and Pat Perez (even-par 71), and Smash consisted of Kokrak, Koepka (even) and Matthew Wolff (1 down).
