AUGUSTA, Ga. (Reuters) - Adam Scott grabbed a share of the clubhouse lead at the Masters on Thursday, finishing three under-par in his best first-round performance in five years at the tournament.

"I'm kind of a slow starter, certainly the last 10 years, I don't jump out of the gates, it seems," said Scott. "So I don't know if this is jumping out of the gates, but it certainly is great."
