Bill Haas tees off on the 12th hole during the first round of the Masters golf tournament Thursday, April 10, 2014, in Augusta, Ga.

PGA Tour pro Bill Haas comes from a golf family. His dad, Jay, has been a longtime member of the PGA Tour, winning nine times on the regular Tour and 16 times on the Champions Tour. Dad never won the Masters, but son has put himself in a good position after the first round of golf's first major tournament.

Bill Haas shot a four under 68 Thursday to take a one-shot lead over three players - defending champion Adam Scott, former British Open champion Louis Oosthuizen, and 2012 Masters winner Bubba Watson, who all carded three under 69s.

There's a group of seven golfers, led by first-time players Kevin Stadler, Jonas Blixt of Sweden, and Jimmy Walker, who shot two under par 70 Thursday.

And, at one under par 71, you'll find some familiar names, such as former champion Fred Couples, Rory McIlroy, and Miguel Angel Jimenez.

As for Friday's tee times, which are all in the Eastern time zone, here are some of the notables:

American Nick Watney, who's four shots back at even par, will tee off at 8:29 a.m.

Louis Oosthuizen, who is part of a threesome with Matt Kuchar of the US, will tee off at 8:51 a.m.

Former two-time Masters champion Bernhard Langer of Germany, who's also at even par after the first round, starts his second round at 9:24 a.m.

Bubba Watson, playing with Sergio Garcia and Luke Donald, tees off the first hole at 9:57 a.m.

Phil Mickelson hopes to play better on Friday, after shooting a four over 76. He tees off at 10:30 a.m.

Kevin Stadler's group, which includes former Masters winner Ian Woosnam, will start at 11:03 a.m, followed by Jonas Blixt's threesome at 11:14 a.m.

Fred Couples will tee off with his effortless golf swing at 12:42 p.m.

Jimmy Walker, paired with Ricky Fowler and Graeme McDowell, go off the first hole at 12:53 p.m.

Haas, the first round leader, is in a threesome with Jimenez and the young Italian star, Matteo Manassero. This group will tee off at 1:15 p.m.

Scott, the defending champion, is playing alongside Jason Duffner and Matthew Fitzpatrick, the US Amateur champion. This threesome will start their second round at 1:48 p.m.

Again on Friday, ESPN will have second round coverage, beginning at 3 p.m. Eastern time. You can also go to Masters.com to find live streaming video to check out from your computer or wireless device, starting at 10:45 a.m.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
