WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. -- The moustache is gone, and for one round at least, Johnson Wagner also didnt have to deal with playing bad golf. Wagner and Tommy Gainey each shot an 8-under 62 on Thursday to share a two-stroke lead after the first round of the Greenbrier Classic. Webb Simpson and Jin Park were close behind after 64s. Daniel Summerhays, Tag Ridings, Steven Bowditch and 50-year-old Neal Lancaster were another shot back. Players were able to lift, clean and place their balls Thursday after rain fell prior to the start of play. Gainey and Wagner had bogey-free rounds in the morning. Wagner was 8 under after 12 holes but finished with six straight pars. Both could use a good week -- Gainey is 125th in season tour winnings, while Wagner ranks 148th. Wagner doesnt have a top-10 finish this year and the three-time tour champion hasnt won since the 2012 Sony Open. In his last seven tournaments, hes missed six cuts and withdrew from the Memorial. "The last couple of months have been really hard," Wagner said. "I just havent been much fun to be around. Its just been tough. Nobody likes to be bad at what they do, especially golfers." A product of Virginia Tech -- which is less than two hours from the Old White TPC course -- Wagner chipped in for eagle on the par-5 12th, then finished with six straight pars. "Ive been disappointed with 76s and 79s the last month, so Im very happy to be disappointed with a 62 today," said Wagner, who shaved his well-talked-about moustache in a nod to his wife for their seventh wedding anniversary on Monday. "I didnt get her a gift. So I thought maybe surprising her with a clean lip would suffice," he said. The moustache will return at some point. "I love irritating my wife too much to let it go for too long," he said. Gaineys first PGA Tour victory came last fall at the McGladrey Classic, but like Wagner he has missed more cuts than hes made this year. Nicknamed "Two Gloves" for wearing gloves on both hands, Gainey had a serious talk with his wife, two other family members and his agent in the past month to try to figure out how to turn around his bad fortunes. Gainey said he had stopped having fun on the course. "I had gotten away from that and Im trying to get back into that now," he said. "I felt like I knew what was going on. I was putting too much pressure on myself." Not Thursday, when he missed just one fairway with a new driver in his bag. "Hitting out of the rough is no fun," Gainey said. "Trust me, Ive been doing it for the past three years." Wagner admitted he had thoughts of shooting 59. Gainey knows what its like to flirt with the magic number, which only five players have attained in official PGA Tour events. He shot 60 in the McGladrey Classics final round. At the inaugural Greenbrier Classic in 2010, Stuart Appleby shot 59 in the final round to win at 22 under. With favourable scoring conditions this week, theres already talk about surpassing that. On Thursday, the top eight scores produced just nine total bogeys. "I believe you can get to at least 20 (under) this week," Gainey said. "It depends on how much rain we get and how much softer this course gets." Lancasters lone PGA Tour win came at the 1994 Byron Nelson Classic. Hes won $83,000 in five Champions Tour events this year. With an early second-round tee time, he knew where he was heading after Thursdays round. "To bed. Fifty-year-old guys dont want to play golf at 7:20 in the morning," he said. Among those at 2 under were Bill Haas, coming off a win at Congressional last week, and Ryan Palmer, whose caddie is New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton. Phil Mickelson, playing for the first time since finishing second to Justin Rose at the U.S. Open, struggled to a 74. His tee shot on the par-5 17th landed in Howards Creek and he three-putted for triple bogey. He also had five bogeys and four birdies. A similar round on Friday would mean his third missed cut of the year and the third consecutive time hes failed to advance to weekend play at the Greenbrier Classic. "I dont know what it is," Mickelson said. "I felt like I was playing really well heading in here. I dont play this course well. I dont know what the reasoning is. Its just given me problems the last few years."

Compared to what hes gone through in recent weeks, that seemed like a breeze. Speaking to The Associated Press on Friday at an NBA Cares event, Silver said hes thrilled that the leagues attention can be on the championship series between the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs -- and not, as it was for so much of the post-season, on the off-the-court matters involving the banishment of Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling and now the looming sale of that franchise.IRVING, Texas - Before he became the Dallas linebacker caught up in the critical pass interference penalty that wasnt in a wild-card win over Detroit, Anthony Hitchens was a steadily improving rookie playing a much bigger role than the Cowboys anticipated.Nothing about that description has changed in his mind now that millions more people know who he is.Im just a guy who is trying to do his job, Hitchens said. I dont make calls. All I can do is get to the ball and do my job. Thats all I can say.Hitchens sprinted into the spotlight when he was trying to run down Brandon Pettigrew and made contact with the Lions tight end just before Matthew Staffords pass hit Hitchens in the back and he eased up before rolling over Pettigrew as both players fell.One official threw a flag, and referee Pete Morelli announced the penalty before another official overruled the call, saying there wasnt enough contact for interference. A day later, the NFL said there wasnt any interference, but that Hitchens should have been called for holding.People are still talking about it, even with the Cowboys (13-4) well on their way to preparations for Sundays division-round game at Green Bay (12-4).I think I did a pretty good job of closing the distance and at least trying to get my head turned around, Hitchens said. You can always improve. Just focus on more of the negatives than the positives at that time.The Cowboys were criticized for taking Hitchens in the fourth round out of Iowa when he projected as a later-round selection. They took him as insurance for oft-injured Sean Lee, who tore a knee ligament on the first day of off-season workouts less than a month later.Its been a whirlwind since for Hitchens, who has started at all three linebacker spots and is third on the team in tackles with 100. The leader is safety Barry Church, ahead of linebacker Rolando McClain, who was acquired in a trade just before training camp with the Cowboys hoping he could take Lees starting spot.McClain has had trouble staying healthy, and Justin Durant wwas lost to a torn arm muscle halfway through the season.ddddddddddddHitchens made it through all 16 games, then played through a sprained ankle against the Lions after missing practice all week. He was out again Wednesday.We planned to have him in a role where he wasnt going to have to play that much, coach Jason Garrett said of the wild-card game. Before you know it, Rolando cant play and now hes out there probably playing double the snaps we had planned to have him play.Its been that way since Lees knee gave out in a noncontract drill, and the significance of the injury wasnt lost on Hitchens.That I needed to grow up fast, like right then and there, Hitchens said of what he was thinking at the time. I didnt know if I was going to be in there right then or some other time down the road. I just knew I had to speed up my learning process real soon.Bruce Carter, who missed three games with a thigh injury and had to be replaced by Hitchens, said the rookie succeeded.Normally rookies come in, and they have the rookie wall, and the seasons gone on, Carter said. I dont see him as a rookie, to be quite honest. Hes one of us.The Cowboys liked Hitchens during the draft because of his versatility, but even they didnt think they would be moving him around as much as they have. And they didnt think he would be making the calls on defence, which he has occasionally.I do think he has grown up quickly, Garrett said. Sometimes that happens. When there is an opportunity that is there and there are a lot of people who are trying to fill a void, typically the progression and development happens more quickly and they get thrust into it.NOTES: DE Jeremy Mincey missed practice Wednesday, a day after concussion-like symptoms emerged. McClain is also set be evaluated for a concussion. ... DT Terrell McClain and RT Doug Free missed practice. Both are dealing with ankle injuries.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow Schuyler Dixon on Twitter at https://twitter.com/apschuyler ' ' '
