NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. Cheap Astros Jerseys China . -- John Daly birdied the final five holes Friday in the Toshiba Classic, leaving him three strokes behind fellow senior newcomer Billy Mayfair and 62-year-old Jay Haas.Making his 14th PGA Tour Champions start since turning 50 in April, the long-hitting Daly finished with a 4-under 67 at Newport Beach Country Club after playing the front nine in even par and dropping a stroke on 13.This course, you short-side yourself you can make some big numbers, but its a golf course that if I keep hitting the driver straight, you can score, Daly said. A lot of wedges into a lot of the holes.The two-time major champion has three top-20 finishes on the senior tour, the best a tie for 11th in July in New York at the Dicks Sporting Goods Open.Ive been hitting it pretty good and just the two weeks off did me some good, Daly said. My shoulders still not good, but Im able to hit full shots. Im struggling with three-quarter shots, which might not make sense, but every time I try to pinch one, it hurts like heck. But the full shots are OK and luckily thats what I had coming down the stretch today.Haas made an 18-foot birdie putt on 18 to match Mayfair at 64.Ive always played this course well, said Haas, the 2007 winner.

Mize played the back-nine in 5-under 31.Ive been trying too hard, Mize said. I tried to just relax and have fun. As crazy as it sounds, care a little less and just go out there and dont let anything bother you and just have a good time.Goydos birdied four of the first five holes.The golf course is there to be had, but if you hit in the wrong place here, youre going to make bogeys, Goydos said. Today, I probably should have made three bogeys and I made none.Ross Cochran shot 66, and defending champion Duffy Waldorf was at 67 along with Daly, Mark Calcavecchia, Ian Woosnam, Joey Sindelar, Mark Brooks, Jay Don Blake, John Cook, Fred Funk, Billy Andrade, Jerry Smith, Doug Garwood and brothers Bart and Brad Bryant.Colin Montgomerie had a 68.
