Ouch for Romero and Stricker

Well, Sergio isn't helping himself, but both Romero and Stricker drove into the gorse. Romero dropped three strokes and Stricker two.

Padraig Harrington, on the other hand, is driving forward and is now tied for second with Els, only a stroke back, and has a good chance for birdie to join Sergio in the lead. In fact, he just did.

But, ahhhhh. What a gorgeous tee shot from Sergio at ten.

Sergio and Harrington (playing 11) are -7, Els -6 (playing 11), and Stricker and Romero (playing 13) at -5.
