Phil even through eight at Barclays

    Phil Mickelson is playing a solid, albeit unspectacular round. He is at par through eighth holes at the Barclays. Tiger Woods and Vaughn Taylor still lead at 6 under. Scott Verplank might be able to make a run at them, inasmuch as he is four under and playing the front nine last. More birdie opportunities early on the front nine at Ridgewood Country Club.
