Chandler Blanchet shot a career-low 9-under 62 to take a one-shot lead after the first round of the Butterfield Bermuda Championship. The American PGA Tour rookie made two eagles, including a giant from 50 feet, and added six birdies. His only dropped shot came on the par-4 fourth hole when he missed the green to the left.

Blanchet led by one shot over fellow Americans Ben Kohles and Danny Walker and Canadians Corey Conners and Ben Silverman. The 30-year-old is in his first full-time season on the PGA Tour after joining the Korn Kerry Tour in 2020. He is ranked No. 114 and is seeking his first PGA Tour win after finishing second at the Puerto Rico Open in March.

Two Australians competed in the tournament. Aaron Baddeley shot 2-under 69 to tie for 60th place, while Cam Davis finished one shot further back. Bermuda is one of five remaining tournaments in the season, with the top 100 ranked players retaining full status for 2027.
