J.P. Hayes, Jay Williamson, Ryan Moore
Tee time:
8:25 a.m.
Tee: No. 1

Why you should watch: Moore took a share of the Thursday lead with a Thursday 67 despite four bogeys. He starts on the front nine today where he opened and closed with birdies. Williamson also had four bogeys Thursday, but sits five shots back of Moore. Hayes struggled mightily on the back nine Thursday, bogeying four of the first six with no birdies. Still, he starts the day just seven back.

Scott was bogey-free on the back nine, where he starts his round today. Hometown boy Leonard is just four back of the lead at the start of Friday's round, as is Garcia. Both of Garcia's Thursday bogeys were on the back nine.
