DETROIT (AP) — Peter Malnati has missed more cuts than he has made on the PGA Tour this season, filling his head with doubts about his game. Malnati shot a career-best, 9-under 61 to tie a tournament record in the first round of the final Rocket Classic on Thursday, giving him a two-shot lead. “I don’t think I took advantage of a super easy course,” said the 39-year-old Malnati, who has won on the PGA Tour in 2024 and 2015. Michael Brennan surged up the leaderboard after starting 2 over through four holes with eight straight birdies — one shy of the PGA Tour record. The PGA Tour is moving to a new model for 2028, effectively creating two tours and Detroit organizers are taking an exit.
