Qualifier Peter Kuest carded an 8–under par round of 64 on Thursday, June 29, to share the lead with Taylor Moore after the first round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
It appeared Kuest would hold the outright lead, but Moore poured in his fourth birdie in a five-hole stretch on No. 17 to pull even. Moore’s birdie attempt on No. 18, which would have tied the course record, slid just right of the cup.
