2021 Palmetto Championship scores: South Carolina native Dustin Johnson one back in home state after Round 1

Johnson's bogey-free round has him in a four-way tie for second behind Wes Roach's 7-under-par 64

RIDGELAND, S.C. (AP) -- Dustin Johnson got off to a fast start Thursday at Congaree in his home-state Palmetto Championship, shooting a 6-under 65 that left him a shot behind leader Wes Roach. Johnson, the world's top-ranked player and a South Carolina native, hadn't played since missing the cut the last time he teed it up in the Palmetto State at the PGA Championship on Kiawah Island last month. Johnson appeared he might hold a share of the lead before Roach, a 32-year-old seeking his first PGA Tour victory, rolled in a 19-footer for a go-ahead birdie on the 16th hole.
