Mike Weir shaved his "playoff beard" when his wife and children flew into town this week, but that had no bearing on his golf yesterday. This was a round to enjoy, not explain. Determined to get off to a better start, Weir birdied the first four holes and one-putted his final nine greens in the Deutsche Bank Championship to tie the course record at TPC Boston with a 10-under 61, the lowest round of his PGA Tour career. Weir never saw a 61 coming. Only three of his birdie putts were inside 10 feet, including a five-footer on the 18th that gave him his career low on tour, one shot better than a 62 in the first round at Doral seven years ago. The only noticeable difference was a clean-shaven face.
