(AP) --  Justin Rose birdied five of his final six
holes for a 6-under 64 and a share of the first-round lead
in the Travelers Championship.

 Rose, the Memorial winner three weeks ago who failed to qualify
for the U.S. Open last week at Pebble Beach, missed a 12-foot
birdie putt on 18, leaving him tied with morning starters Padraig
Harrington, Charlie Wi and Mathew Goggin.

 Harrington birdied his first three holes and was 4 under at the
turn. Goggin made his run on the back nine, birdieing Nos. 13, 15
and 17. Wi had four back-nine birdies.

 All three completed play before a 90-minute rain delay and a
windy afternoon finish.
