Video: Catch up on Round 1 of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans

The big story coming into the Zurich Classic was Bubba Watson's return to golf following his win at the Masters. Unfortunately, Watson didn't live up to the hype on Thursday, firing a 1-under 71 that currently has him six shots back of the lead. He's currently chasing Cameron Tringale and Ken Duke, who fired a pair of 7-under 65's to grab a one-shot lead over four players, including Steve Stricker and Ernie Els. After dealing with gusty winds on Thursday, the second round should be played under relatively calm conditions, which means low scores should be the norm.
