The leaders heading in to the final round of The Barclays have begun their rounds at Bethpage, and a major storyline is the battle between Sergio Garcia and Nick Watney atop the leaderboard
Garcia began the day with a two stroke lead at 10-under, however he bogeyed the first hole, before shooting par on the next four. Watney tied Garcia with a birdie on hole No. 2, but followed that with a bogey on hole No. 5 to move back in to second place. They are both playing in the final group and are through five holes on the course.
Other contenders include Greg Chalmers and Brandt Snedeker who are both at 7-under par through seven holes. Lee Westwood and Tim Clark are also not far off at 6-under and still have a shot at winning.

The final round of The Barclays at Bethpage Black is about halfway done, and Spain's Sergio Garcia is still the leader with a score of 10-under par.
Garcia, who begins his final round at 1:40 p.m. ET, sits two shots ahead of Nick Watney (8-under), who's paired with Garcia, and three in front of Kevin Stadler who tees off at 1:30 p.m. ET.
Tiger Woods is on the course and is even-par on the day (4-under overall) and sits in a tie for 11th place. Woods already has two birdies and bogies on the day, and will need to be more consistent to make a run at the leaders.
So far, the lowest round of the day came from Jason Day, who carded a 5-under 66, to improve to 1-under overall and move into a tie for 31st place. Both Graham DeLaet and Bud Cauley are 4-under for the day and 3-under overall after 15 holes.

Even though he is yet to tee off, Sergio Garcia still leads the Barclays on the fourth and final day of the tournament held at Bethpage State Park in Farmingdale, New York, but several golfers have already made significant moves early on.
American John Rollins, who began the day at 53rd place, is 4-under through the turn, good for a 31 spot jump to a tie at 22nd with Rory McIllroy, Vijay Singh, Geoff Ogilvy, and others.
Australian Jason Day and American Jimmy Walker are also having good final days of the tournament thus far, each at 4-under through 13 and seven holes, respectively.
The biggest tumble of the day so far is that of American Jeff Maggert, who is currently 4-over through twelve. Also at 4-over on the day so far are K.J. Choi, James Driscoll, and Robert Garrigus.
New York Native John Huh is one over on the day through eight holes. He is currently tied for 52nd place.

Kevin Stadler, who jumped from 42nd to third yesterday after shooting 6-under par, sits in front of Brandt Snedeker and Bob Estes, both tied for fourth.

With only one round left at The 2012 Barclays in Farmingdale, Sergio Garcia is the leader in the clubhouse by two strokes over Nick Watney.
Garcia started Saturday at 8-under before finishing 10-under thanks to a couple of birdies on the 11th and 13th. Garcia was steady throughout the day, taking the lead on Watney who started the back nine with a two-stroke edge.
Watney was seemingly in control early, but started to have some issues beginning on the 11th. From there, Watney bogeyed four of the final eight holes.
Tiger Woods is just about finished after ending Saturday's round with a 1-over 72. Woods' chances looked good through the initial two rounds, but he faltered despite four birdies due to five bogeys.
The biggest move on the afternoon belonged to Kevin Stadler. The American shot a 6-under to jump from 42nd to 3rd place. Stadler is now very much in the race, only three strokes behind Garcia heading into Sunday.

The leaders are now out on the course at Bethpage and American Nick Watney now has sole possession of the lead at the 2012 Barclays. Watney continues his blistering pace on the gettable front nine, carding birdies at three of the first five holes. At 11-under, he's now two shots clear of the field and looking to post another low red number. Watney led the FedEx Cup standings during the 2011 regular season, but he's had a lackluster summer to say the least. He fell out of contention for the Ryder Cup but perhaps a red-hot end to the season could convince Davis Love II to make a late switch.
Two other potential Ryder Cup captain's picks, Rickie Fowler and Brandt Snedeker, are also on the first page of the leaderboard. Snedeker has one of the best putters in the game and the flatstick would be the first reason why he was selected to play at Medinah. Fowler, on the other hand, was widely considered to be the final and 12th choice to fill out the team. After a fast start, Snedeker is now 6-under while Fowler is looking to make a charge on moving day and is at 7-under for the championship.
Tiger Woods, who battled a stiff back on Friday, is likely not playing at 100 percent on Saturday. He's had a roller coaster third round but has now picked up a shot and moved to 6-under with back-to-back birdies on Nos. 6 and 7. Woods is the current FedEx Cup points leader and is in little danger of not making it through to the finals in Atlanta in a month, but a win at Bethpage would certainly cap a successful summer and provide a boost in advance of the Ryder Cup.

The third round of the 2012 Barclays is underway, and though the leaders have yet to tee off, some pretty big names are doing well so far on Saturday morning.
PGA Championship winner Rory McIlroy is 3-under through his first nine holes on Saturday, putting him five strokes behind the leaders, Nick Watney and Sergio Garcia (who sit at 8-under). McIlroy shot even-par through the first two rounds, but seems poised to make at least some type of run on Saturday.
Watney and Garcia will not tee off until 1:45.
Like McIlroy, Phil Mickelson entered Saturday's action at even-par. Also like McIlroy, Mickelson has shot 3-under so far on Saturday, through his first nine holes too.
John Huh, who was born in New York City, will tee off at 1:15 p.m. Huh has shot 5-under through his first two rounds, tying him with Tiger Woods, and leaving him three shots behind Watney and Garcia.

Tiger Woods appears to be battling through an injury at the 2012 Barclays Championship as he has been seen favoring his left knee and lower back through points in the second round.
On hole No. 5, Woods winced after his opening shot and was seen clutching his left knee, which was the same knee he had surgically repaired after the 2008 U.S. Open.

Vijay Singh and Bob Estes are currently tied for the overall lead at the 2012 Barclays championship at 7-under par. Singh recorded three birdies through the front-nine to pull within one shot of then leader Padraig Harrington and managed to tack on the tying stroke on the final hole.
Harrington has since dropped to a 5-under par after recording consecutive bogeys to begin his second round.
Estes on the other hand has recorded a 5-under par in his second round alone and with two holes remaining has a chance to pass Singh for the lead if he is able to register another birdie.
Singh and Estes aren't the only players making an aggressive move to the top, though. New York born John Huh registered six birdies on the way to a 4-under in his second round to pull two shots off the lead with an overall score of 5-under.

It's a beautiful day for golf out on Long Island: the leader hasn't teed off today at Bethpage, but Vijay Singh has put on a strong run in the early going on Friday to put some pressure on Padraig Harrington.
Singh is 3-under on the day through 15 holes to put him in a tie for second with Nick Watney and Brian Harman who, like Harrington, will tee off later. Rickie Fowler is the most prominent name in a group of golfers to climb to two back at 5-under, although Sergio Garcia remains there with his tee time still to come.
John Huh, who was born in New York, has dropped his score by two strokes and is now sitting at 3-under on the tournament. He's tied there with Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and Luke Donald, all of whom have yet to begin their Friday rounds.

The second round of The Barclays tees off early Friday morning with the field looking to make the weekend and advance on to Boston and the Deutsche Bank. Padraig Harrington, who needs to have a phenomenal finish to the season in order to impress European Ryder Cup captain Jose Maria Olazabal, leads after going low in Round 1 with a 64. Ozabal essentially said Paddy was a long shot to make the team, but if he continues to post numbers like he did on Thursday, he'll leave the Spaniard no choice. Harrington will go off in the afternoon wave on Friday at 12:22 p.m. ET.
Golf Channel will once again carry the broadcast, extending their coverage from the typical three-hour broadcast to four hours this week. They will come on the air at 2 p.m. ET and run until 6 p.m. ET. Their broadcast will undoubtedly cover the power group put together by the Tour -- a Tiger Woods-Rory McIlroy-Zach Johnson threesome. Both Woods and McIlroy are under par and they tee off at 1:06 p.m. ET. Two groups before them will be Phil Mickelson, who tees off at 12:44 p.m. ET playing alongside Luke Donald.
