Groups we're watching

Tee time Players   11:06 a.m. ET No. 10 Tommy Gainey, Mark Wilson, Bill Haas Bill Haas has been Mr. Consistent. Will he make a move against a first-time leader and Packer fan on Super Bowl Sunday? 10:57 a.m. ET No. 10 Chris Couch, Rickie Fowler, Phil Mickelson Fowler's 62 was the round of the week thus far, but with ideal scoring conditions, we could see it matched or bested. 10:48 a.m. ET No. 10 Geoff Ogilvy, Jason Dufner, Aaron Baddeley Rust? What rust? Ogilvy's injury cost him a shot at a Hawaiian three-peat, but he can still win his third straight opener. 10:39 a.m. ET No. 10 Jonathan Byrd, Bo Van Pelt, Gary Woodland Woodland came close at PGA West, and rounds of 68-66 have him in contention once again at TPC Scottsdale.
