CARNOUSTIE, Scotland -- Woody Austin made four birdies in a six-hole stretch on the back nine and finished with a 4-under 68 to take the first-round lead in the Senior British Open.Austin, 52, rebounded from bogeys on Nos. 9 and 10 with birdies on 11, 12, 14 and 16. He has struggled after winning three times in four events this year on the PGA Tour Champions.It seems I forgot how to play after that, Austin said. Its been really bad since. Its been unfortunately a long stretch of really ugliness.Mark OMeara was a stroke back along with Carlos Franco, Esteban Toledo, Joe Durant, Tom Byrum, Scott McCarron and Peter Fowler. Franco, from Paraguay, qualified Monday.The wind was 10-15 mph at Carnoustie Golf Links with a mix of sun and clouds and a high in the 60s.I think the rain yesterday softened the course a little bit, OMeara said. We were pretty fortunate. The wind laid down just a little bit in the middle of our round out there, so it was a little bit more playable. But Carnoustie is a very demanding golf course. You have to drive the ball well. You have to be accurate with your iron shots, and then youve got to putt well.Austin won the last of his four PGA Tour titles in the 2013 Sanderson Farms Championship.Im not into grinding, Austin said. Im not into beating a bunch of balls anymore. I did that for my 40 years. Im done.So I go home, I play with my kids, I play with my family. I own a golf course. I help run the golf course. I try to do the things I need to do there. Youll find me sometimes weeding, jumping on a mower and mowing. I hit balls usually maybe Saturday and Sunday the week before I go back out. Thats it. Thats my preparation. The only time I work on is when I get to the golf course.Bernhard Langer, the winner in 2010 at Carnoustie, had a 71.Defending champion Marco Dawson opened with as 72. He won last year at Sunningdale.Michael Bradley had a 74 in his senior debut. He won four times on the PGA Tour. Shareef Miller Eagles Jersey . Louis Blues.

LILLE, France -- Belgium is facing Wales in a European Championship quarterfinal on Friday. Here are five Belgium players to watch:---THIBAUT COURTOISComing off a disappointing Premier League season with Chelsea, marred by a three-month layoff following knee surgery, Thibaut Courtois wants to cement his status as one of the best goalkeepers of his generation. He could hardly be blamed for conceding twice during Belgiums below-par Euro 2016 opener against Italy. Courtois kept a clean sheet in all three games since, also denying Zlatan Ibrahimovic on several occasions during the Swedes last international game.---RADJA NAINGGOLANNot just for his punk-style haircut or colorful throat tattoo, Radja Nainggolan has become one of the most eye-catching players of the Belgian team. The Roma midfielder is a key element to coach Marc Wilmots tactical approach, providing an invaluable link between defense and attack. He also scored the late goal for Belgiums 1-0 win over Sweden. Nainggolan became the center of some off-field controversy when Italian media reported on his smoking habits. Coach Wilmots, however, said he was already aware, quipping I make sure we always get him a room with a balcony so he doesnt set off the fire alarm.---EDEN HAZARDWhats next for Eden Hazard? Improving with every game Belgium played this competition, he reached his peak with a dazzling performance in the last 16, highlighted by a superb solo run through the Hungarian defense on his way to Belgiums third of four goals. However, he picked up a thigh injury that night which put a question mark behind his availability for the quarterfinal gamme against Wales.dddddddddddd. Some doubted coach Wilmots decision to make Hazard the teams captain after injured Vincent Kompany was ruled out for Euro 2016. Hazard has often failed to replicate his stunning form at Chelsea when playing for the national team, but this time it might just be the other way round after a poor season in the Premier League.---KEVIN DE BRUYNERecovering from a knee injury and becoming a father in the early months of 2016, Kevin De Bruyne still has to get into his stride again. The Manchester City midfielder scored five times to help Belgium qualify for Euro 2016 but hasnt found the net so far in France. Like the whole team, De Bruyne got better and delivered three assists in the games following to the struggle against a well-organized Italy. But Wales will likely field an equally tight defense to make life hard for him again.---MICHY BATSHUAYIMaking the headlines this week for undergoing a medical examination possibly linked to a move to Chelsea, Michy Batshuayi is about to make his breakthrough for the national team. Yet to start a game for Belgium, the Marseille striker has been remarkably effective by scoring three goals in six rather short appearances for the team. Set up by Hazard, Batshuayi netted with his first touch of the ball in the last 16-game against Hungary and celebrated with a backflip. Coach Wilmots might stick with hi
