ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (AP) — Ryder Cup vice-captain Thomas Bjorn shot a 6-under 66 at St. Andrews on Thursday to take a share of the first-round lead at the Alfred Dunhill Links.

Bjorn, one of Colin Montgomerie’s five backups in the victory over America at Celtic Manor, led eight other members of the European Ryder Cup team in their return to stroke play.

The Links Championship was played over three courses, and Bjorn was tied atop the leaderboard with Ricardo Gonzalez of Argentina, who also played at St. Andrews, Maarten Lafeber, who shot 66 at Carnoustie, and Martin Laird of Scotland, who produced the same score at Kingsbarns.
