Facing the challenges of low temperatures and strong winds, British Open champion Brian Harman shot an even-par 72 in the first round of the Texas Open, leading with a total score of 204, 12 under par. Harman encountered several difficulties during the tournament, ultimately making two birdies on the 14th and 17th holes. He mentioned that the conditions today were quite tough. American player Andrew Novak ranked second with a score of 69, while Tom Hoge and Keith Mitchell placed third and fourth, respectively. Tied for fifth were Sammy Valimaki, Chad Ramey, and Japan's Ryo Nishikaz. The forecast for Sunday shows temperatures will rise, but strong winds will still affect the competition.

The temperature is dropping, and the wind is picking up! Former British Open champion Brian Harman shot a par score of seventy-two on April 5 at TPC San Antonio's AT&T Oaks Course, finishing the tournament twelve strokes under par with a total score of two hundred and four, maintaining a three-stroke lead at the Texas Open. At the Oaks Course, players unanimously agreed to keep the ball away from the oaks, cedars, and cacti; with various challenges, achieving a good score was a luxury, and the key was how to maintain their strokes. Harman spent a day on the course filled with tension and challenges, and the surrounding conditions affected his performance: he encountered bogeys on the second and fourth holes, then made nine consecutive pars, but finally scored his first birdie at the fourteenth hole and added another birdie at the seventeenth, ultimately finishing with a par score of seventy-two, maintaining his lead at twelve under par. "It was a really tough day," Harman said, "I came here early in the morning, the weather was cold, the wind was strong, and the pin placements were quite tricky; it was truly challenging."

Harman won his first victory in the John Deere Classic in 2014, captured his second PGA Tour title at the Charles Schwab Challenge in 2017, and in 2023, he won the British Open, hoping to return to the ranks of champions once again. American player Andrew Novak scored a birdie on the second hole, ultimately shooting a sixty-nine for a total score of two hundred and seven, nine under par, and ranked second alone. Tom Hoge shot a bogey-free sixty-eight, finishing eight under par in third place. Keith Mitchell's score today was seventy-three, totaling two hundred and nine, seven under par, placing fourth. Finnish player Sami Valimaki shot seventy for three consecutive days, Chad Ramey's score was also seventy, two under par, while Japanese player Ryo Nishikori shot seventy-three, with the three of them tied for fifth at two hundred and ten, six under par.

According to the weather forecast for Sunday, temperatures are expected to rise, but wind speeds will also increase again, with gusts reaching up to 32 miles per hour. After hearing the weather forecast, Harman said, "You can only do your best, and there won't be too many expectations for today's score. Just focus on playing each shot well, trying to putt, and if you miss the greens, the scores will naturally fluctuate."
