Vijay Singh, Sergio Garcia, Kevin Sutherland
Tee time: 1:07 p.m.
Tee: No. 1
Total TOUR wins: 40
Why you should watch: Singh (64 in Round 1)was the clubhouse leader on Friday until Mike Weir came in with his blazing 61. Singh, Garcia and Sutherland, who came into TPC Boston 1-2-3 in FedExCup points, all played well in the first round, but Singh appeared especially comfortable. Singh had 28 putts on Friday -- a good day for him on the greens -- and actually struck the ball better than Weir, who had 21 putts.

Mike Weir, J.B. Holmes, Trevor Immelman
Tee time: 7:59 a.m.
Tee: No. 10
Total TOUR wins: 12
Why you should watch: Weir (61 in Round 1) simply made everything he looked on TPC Boston's greens. The low score wasn't really a surprise. Weir, a Canadian, usually gets his game going around this time, and this year is no exception. Weir seems to be playing with exceptional confidence ever since his opening 65 fired up the gallery at the RBC Canadian Open last month. Weir had a strong start at TPC Boston last year as well -- he opened 65-68 only to fall on the weekend and finish tied for 30th.

Phil Mickelson, Justin Leonard, Anthony Kim
Tee time: 8:22 a.m.
Tee: No. 1
Total TOUR wins: 48
Why you should watch: This is truly Moving Day for Mickelson, who needs some FedExCup momentum. Mickelson shot 69 on a fairly easy course on Friday, putting himself into a tie for 47th. He will need to drop a low score to gain some ground for the final two days, and more importantly, gain some much-needed FedExCup points. Leonard, who entered TPC Boston fifth in points, is in the same boat. He also shot 69 on Friday.
