The Redskins announced Monday that the quarterback who led the team to the Super Bowl championship in the 1987 season will serve as a personnel executive.MELBOURNE, Australia - Defending champion Adam Scott struggled in the blustery conditions at Metropolitan Golf Club on Thursday for a 1-over 73, six strokes behind a group of four of his countrymen who led the Australian Masters by a stroke after the first round.Scott, who won the Masters the past two years at other sand-belt courses — Royal Melbourne and Kingston Heath — began play on the back nine Thursday and shot 38, including a double-bogey on the 18th after his approach found a bunker. But an eagle on the par-5 sixth helped move him back up the leaderboard.A strong northerly (wind) from the get-go was always going to make it tough, Scott said. I played pretty well but didnt take any of my chances. Im a little behind the eight-ball at the moment but its nothing a good round tomorrow wont fix.Australians Michael Wright, Stephen Allan, Steven Bowditch and amateur Todd Sinnott shot 67s to share the lead.Bowditch, who won the Texas Open in March for his first U.S. PGA Tour win, had the outright lead until making bogey on his last hole.I knew Ive been playing OK, saaid Bowditch, who also finished second in last months Frys.ddddddddddddom Open.

The early tee time, you see the forecast last night, northerly, youre like hopefully it doesnt start picking up and we get a few holes without it coming, but it was windy from the first hole. But I hit the ball better and better as the day went on.Wright said it was like the wild west but the wind suited his game, with back-to-back birdies on the eighth and ninth holes.It was brutal out there, the 40-year-old Brisbane golfer said. I hit the ball underground, really low, so its suits me to a tee. ' ' '
