AP - Nothing was quite the same at the Sony Open, except for K.J. Choi getting off to another strong start. Choi apparently has recovered from his 79-75 start to the 2008 season last week at Kapalua, which left him in last place on the weekend and playing by himself. He closed with 69-69, and brought that rhythm to Waialae with a bogey-free round that he capped off with a 5-foot birdie for a 6-under 64 and a one-shot lead.
