Ryan Palmer celebrates after holing out for birdie on the 10th hole during the first round of the AT&T National golf tournament at Congressional Country Club, Thursday, July 2, 2009, in Bethesda, Md.

As the tournament host, Tiger Woods took one glance at the leaderboard and realized that overnight rain left Congressional far too soft for his taste at the AT&T National. Anthony Kim, the defending champion, already finished the first round at 8-under 62, a course record and Kim's best ever on the PGA Tour.
