Sergio Garcia shot a second-round 68 to take the lead heading into the weekend at The Barclays with Nick Watney at 8-under par at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, N.Y.

Garcia won the rain-delayed Wyndham Championship on Monday to clinch a spot on the 2012 European Ryder Cup team, and is looking to secure his first FedExCup Playoff victory.

Tiger Woods gave the golf world a scare on Friday, battling pain in his lower back in his warm-up session and throughout the round. Woods blamed the pain on a soft hotel mattress, and said that he will be ready for action in round 3.

“Well, there’s a difference between being in pain and injured,” Woods said in his post-round interview. “This is just a little bit of pain.”

Despite Woods’ ginger movements, grimaces and difficulty picking up his tees, he fought back from opening back-to-back bogeys to card a 2-under 68. He’s at 5-under with Rickie Fowler and John Huh, three back of the lead.

Also close to the lead are Vijay Singh and Bob Estates at 7-under and John Senden and Pat Perez and 6-under.

Television coverage of The Barclays begins on Golf Channel at 1 p.m. EST and on CBS at 3 p.m.

GolfWRX is on site this week at the Valero Texas Open.

The event has been around since 1922, making it one of the oldest on the PGA Tour calendar. Over the years, it’s been held at a variety of courses across the Lone Star State, but it’s found its home at TPC San Antonio in recent years. Some of the biggest names in golf have taken home the title here, including Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, Lee Trevino, and Ben Crenshaw.

GolfWRX has its usual assortment of general galleries, WITBs and special pull-out albums. As always, we’ll continue to update the links below as more photos come in from TPC San Antonio.
