Two-time Carolinas Senior Champion, Paul Simson of Raleigh, NC, started his quest for a third Senior Championship with an eight-under, par 64. Simpson used nine birdies on the day to propel him into a four-shot lead. The Insurance Executive was not able to make it for a practice round but relied on fellow accomplished amateur, Frank Ford of Charleston, SC on course knowledge. The 36 time CGA Champion used the advice to get around the course with ease, "I just avoided the areas I knew would be trouble."  "Today just seemed easy to me, it was a good day" added the 67 year old. Ford currently sits tied for fifth with an opening round 70. Rich Weston of Pawleys Island, SC started out his first round with four birdies on his outward nine. With a back side even par, Weston finished with a four-under 68 leaving him in solo second. Gary Robinson of Fayetteville, NC and Russ Perry of Winston-Salem, NC finished with three-under par 69's to put them in a tie at third place.
