Weekley Birdied Helps Garcia On Holes

Golf Betting Lines

Reigning U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy (69) and 2001 British Open champion David Duval (70) are part of a group tied at minus-four.

 

The two first-round leaders are next on the leaderboard. Doug LaBelle shot 67 and is alone in fourth at minus-14, while 2000 U.S. Amateur champion Jeff Quinney posted a 68 and is alone in fifth at 13-under-par 131.

 

Weekley, whose best tour finish was a share of third earlier this year at the Chattanooga Classic, started on the 10th tee Friday and opened with back-to- back birdies to get to nine-under. After he parred the next four holes, Weekley birdied 16 and 18 to turn in minus-11.

 

Weekley, who turns 33-years-old on Sunday, caught fire down the stretch. He birdied the par-four fifth and came right back with a birdie on six. Weekley was not done.

 

"I've just been focused on hitting the fairways," Weekley stated. "I'm hitting it solid, but there are a couple of shots I haven't mastered yet in my swing of thoughts. Basically out here it is going to be a putting contest. I hit a lot of good putts today."

 

The 37-year-old Duke parred his next four holes. He ran off three birdies in a row from the sixth to move into a share of second place.

 

After three pars in a row around the turn, Barnes carded four more birdies on the front nine to gain his share of second place.

 

Athens Regional Foundation Classic winner Paul Gow shot 66 Friday. He leads a group of eight players at 11-under-par 133.

 

The cut line fell at six-under-par 138 with 67 players moving on to the final two rounds. This is the sixth time in tour history a cut was minus-six. There were two events -- 1991 Dakota Dunes Open and 2004 Henrico County Open -- that had a cut at seven-under par for the lowest cut in tour history.

 

Sergio Garcia fired a seven-under 65 Saturday to climb to 12-under-par 204 and a share of second place. He was joined there Chris DiMarco, who posted a three-under 69, and Ernie Els, who also birdied the 18th to shoot 71.
