They carried him to a 6-under 64, giving him a one-shot lead going into the weekend at the BMW Championship on ever-changing Cherry Hills. Garcia holed out from a greenside bunker for birdie on the second hole. He holed a lob wedge for eagle on the short, par-4 seventh hole. And after hitting into the water going for the green on the par-5 17th hole, he escaped with par by getting up-and-down with a wedge to a foot. He needed them all. Ryan Palmer also made eagle with a short wedge on the seventh hole, and he finished birdie-birdie for a 64 to end up a shot behind. Rory McIlroy made three straight birdies late in his round and left his last putt on the edge of the cup. The late surge gave the world’s No. 1 player another 67 and put him two shots behind. Billy Horschel, a runner-up last week at the TPC Boston, had a 66 and was tied with McIlroy. Garcia was at 8-under 132. Barring a charge that would make even Arnold Palmer proud, Phil Mickelson is playing his last PGA Tour event of the season. He twice hit into the water — making a triple bogey on the par-3 12th and a bogey on the 17th — and shot a 76. Mickelson, who needs to finish about fourth to qualify for the Tour Championship, was 14 shots behind and in a tie for 63rd in the 68-man field. The top 30 advance to the Tour Championship for a shot at the $10 million bonus. QUEBEC CHAMPIONSHIP: At Quebec City, Chip Beck eagled his final hole for a 7-under 65 and a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Champions Tour’s Quebec Championship. The 57-year-old Beck, winless on the 50-and-over tour, hit his 3-wood approach from 256 yards to a foot to set up the eagle on the par-5 ninth hole. Duffy Waldorf and Craig Thomas were tied for second. Thomas, a club professional at Metropolis in White Plains, New York, went through two stages of qualifying to get into the field. CHIQUITA CLASSIC: At Davidson, N.C., Ashland’s Jason Allred faltered, playing the last 10 holes in 7 over par and missing the cut in the second of four events in the Web.com Tour Finals. He was 5 over over two days. Derek Fathauer shot his second straight 6-under 66 to take the second-round lead. Fathauer, 12th on the Web.com Tour’s regular-season money list to secure a 2014-15 PGA Tour card, had seven birdies in an eight-hole stretch from No. 17 to No. 6 at River Run Country Club. Greg Chalmers, Brett Stegmaier and Scott Pinckney were tied for second at 10 under.
