Jim Thorpe and Eduardo Romero both shot 8-under 64s to take the lead after the first round of the Charles Schwab Cup Championship. Taking the lead on the first day was nothing new for Thorpe. This is the third time in the last five years Thorpe has either led or was tied for the lead after the first round. Thorpe, 58, for the first time in his career, played a round of championship golf by himself. He took two hours and 35 minutes. It was the one advantage -- unblemished greens -- he felt his competitors didn't have.

Eduardo Romero shot a 6-under-par 66 to grab the lead Thursday during the rain-delayed first round of the U.S. Senior Open. Romero's score tied for the fourth-best opening round in tournament history, and it represented the latest step in a banner summer for Argentine golf. It came less than a month after Romero's countryman and friend, Angel Cabrera, became the first player from Argentina to win the U.S. Open.

On October 17 of that year, Dr. Newbery took off along with Eduardo Romero on an aerostat flight that would take the pair from Buenos Aires to Argentina's north. The flight went on without any problems during the day, but at night, strong winds caused the aerostat machine to fall. Dr. Eduardo Newbery's body was found near a river, and the accident made him and Romero the first Argentines ever to lose their lives in an aircraft accident.
