Seamus Power four off the lead at The RSM Classic

Seamus Power is within four shots of the lead at the RSM Classic after the opening round.

The Waterford native's 66 proved enough to leave him four under in a 12-way tie for 17th on the Seaside course at the Sea Island Resort in Georgia.

Power managed six birdies with the only blemishes coming on the third and 14th holes.

At the top of the leaderboard, Cole Hammer piled up nine birdies on route to an eight-under 64.

After starting with four birdies on the back nine, Hammer added birdies on holes one, two, four, six and seven.

The field is playing one of the first two rounds at the par-72 Plantation Course and one at the par-70 Seaside Course before the 36-hole cut.

Saturday and Sunday will see players return to the Seaside Course.

Griffin shot a bogey-free card with seven birdies on the Plantation Course. He makes his home in town and is familiar with the local courses.
