Sweden boss defends Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres against 'ignorant' critics
Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has hit back at those who have been critical of Arsenal striker Viktor Gyokeres' recent form.
Charles Schwab Challenge first round
-7 Pak (US), -4 Wallace (Eng), Cauley (US), Griffin (US), Hossler (US), Poston (US), Rodgers (US), Spaun (US), Schmid (Ger), Hisatsune (Jap)
Selected others: -2 Scheffler (US), -1 Spieth (US), E Fowler (US)
He is part of a nine-strong chasing pack that trails PGA Tour rookie John Pak by three shots at Colonial Country Club.
Wallace was level par after the front nine, but made three birdies in the first five holes on the back nine before finishing his round with another.
American Pak, who has one top-25 finish this year, hit five birdies and one eagle in a career-best 63.
World number one Scottie Scheffler, fresh from winning his third major with last weekend's PGA Championship, is tied for 20th after carding a 68.
"On a day where I didn't hit a lot of fairways on a golf course where you have to hit a lot of fairways, I posted a decent score," he said.
"I wish it was a little lower but overall I feel decent about the position I'm in."
