Brendan Steele's push for the first round lead in the rain-hit Valero Texas Open was halted by darkness, leaving Charley Hoffman with the clubhouse lead. On a day that saw inclement weather halt play for about three and a half hours, Hoffman made it safely into the clubhouse with a six-under par-66. Steele, the 2011 winner, had surged past Hoffman to the top of the leaderboard with eight birdies in 13 holes without a bogey before darkness fell.
