Sergio Garcia and Ryan Palmer are atop the leaderboard here at the HP Byron Nelson Championship at -8, a three shot lead over Tim Petrovic and Scott Piercy.

Ryan Palmer’s ball striking is putting him in close proximity to the hole, where he has been performing very well. His short game has been excellent when he does miss greens and he hasn’t had to many long putts or putts from the incorrect quadrants.

Sergio Garcia is striking the ball well as usual, but his putting is as good as I’ve seen it. He made some clutch par putts and sand saves in windy conditions yesterday as well as chipping in from 45 feet on the 15th green for birdie.
