SAN ANTONIO -- Kenny Perry birdied five of the first six holes and finished with a 7-under 65 to take the first-round lead Friday in the Champions Tours AT&T Championship. The Charles Schwab Cup leader birdied the first three holes, dropped a stroke on the par-3 fourth, then birdied the next two holes. He added birdies on Nos. 12, 14 and 15. Perry has played the past few weeks with a higher lofted putter, but he has switched back to a less-lofted model he used when he won the Senior Players Championship and U.S. Senior Open in consecutive tour starts this summer. He had only 12 putts in a front-nine 32. "I went back to the putter I used to win two senior majors with and immediately started holing putts," Perry said. "Seems like the last two weeks Ive been having a root canal trying to make birdie. It was so much easier today. I putted beautifully." The top 30 on the money list Sunday will advance to the season-ending Charles Schwab Cup Championship next week at TPC Harding Park in San Francisco. Perry entered the regular-season finale 494 points ahead of second-place Bernhard Langer in the race for a $1 million annuity. He took the lead on TPC San Antonios AT&T Canyons Course with a two-putt birdie after reaching the par-5 15th in two with a 3-wood. He parred out to remain one ahead. Tom Pernice Jr. was a stroke back after a 66. He won the 3M Championship in August in Minnesota. "My swing is continuing to improve, and this might have been the best Ive driven the ball this year," Pernice said after missing just one fairway on the back nine. "It set me up for a lot of good opportunities." Langer and Anders Forsbrand followed at 67, and Colin Montgomerie, Russ Cochran, Dick Mast and Bob Tway shot 68. ""Hes swinging really good," Langer said about Forsbrand, who was an assistant when Langer captained the winning 2004 European Ryder Cup team. "Hes certainly hitting the ball as good as anyone on this tour right now." Fred Couples, the 2011 winner who missed the event last year because of a back injury, had a quadruple-bogey 8 on the first hole en route to a 75. David Frost, a playoff winner over Langer last year in the event, shot 77.

Dortmund started strongly only to go behind in the 13th minute when Karim Haggui scored with a header from the visitors only corner. But Sokratis equalized six minutes later in similar fashion, three minutes before Marco Reus made it 2-1 with a fine solo effort. Reus had just squandered a golden opportunity created by Henrikh Mkhitaryan, but the Germany midfielder more than made up for the rare mistake when he shrugged off two defenders, eluded two more and fired inside the far corner. Lewandowski decided the game with two goals in as many minutes. First Reus set him up with a back-heel in the 54th and then Mkhitaryan sent him though to score again. "He wants to score goals, regardless when, regardless where," said Juergen Klopp, who renewed his contract as Dortmund coach to 2018 on Wednesday. Lewandowski claimed his ninth of the season on a rebound in the 72nd, when Sven Ulreichs save from Jakub Blaszczykowski came back off the crossbar, and the Poland striker set up Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to wrap up the scoring in the 81st.dddddddddddd "I feel very well at the moment," Lewandowski said. Dortmund moved two points clear of Bayern Munich, which visits Hoffenheim on Saturday. "It was a really great evening. It couldnt have gone better," said Dortmund goalkeeper Roman Weidenfeller after his 300th Bundesliga game. The visitors could have had a penalty before the break, when Timo Werner went down under pressure from Kevin Grosskreutz, but referee Florian Meyer seemed to change his mind after appearing to award the spot-kick. "We should have equalized then but afterward I think we kind of invited the goals at the back," Werner said. "We dont know ourselves (what happened)." It was Thomas Schneiders first defeat in eight games as Stuttgart coach. "You need a good day to beat Dortmund and we didnt have that today," Schneider said. ' ' '
