LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) -- Justin Rose shot a 7-under 65 on Thursday to take the lead in the Children's Miracle Network Classic.

Rose was bogey-free on a breezy day where a steady morning drizzle and temperatures dipping into the low 50s made greens soft but tough to reach.

Greenville native Will MacKenzie shot a first round 67 and is two shots off the lead.

Upstart Rickie Fowler, Greg Owen and Casey Wittenberg were one shot back at Disney World in the final PGA Tour event of the season.

The 20-year-old Fowler is making only his third start since turning pro from Oklahoma State. He can join Tiger Woods as one of the few players to go from college to receiving full status on tour in the same year by earning enough money on sponsors exemptions.

Defending champion Davis Love III withdrew with neck pain after shooting a 73.
