Casey, Gomez set early pace at Deutsche Bank
England's Paul Casey and Argentina's Fabian Gomez grabbed an early share of the lead at the Deutsche Bank Championship on Friday after carding five-under-par 66s.
Kevin Chappell of the United States was a shot back at four-under-par alongside Jim Furyk and Steve Stricker.
Olympic champion Justin Rose and British Open winner Henrik Stenson were in a group of seven players two shots off the lead after shooting three-under-par 68s.
World number 30 Casey took the lead after a rollercoaster round that included eight birdies and three bogeys.
Casey, who is ranked 59th in the FedExCup standings following his 31st place finish at The Barclays last weekend, is chasing only his second PGA Tour victory after winning the 2009 Shell Houston Open.
The 39-year-old Englishman has enjoyed a solid season this year with a fourth place finish at the Masters and a share of 10th at the PGA Championship in July.
Gomez meanwhile earned a share of the lead after making a birdie on his 18th hole, having bogeyed his 17th.
The 37-year-old Argentine is chasing his second win of the season and third on Tour following his win over Brandt Snedeker at the Sony Open in Hawaii in January.
Gomez is currently 48th in the FedEx Cup standings after finishing in joint 60th place at The Barclays.
