Toms Leads The Players,Broad Market Lower

At The Players Championship in Ponte Vedra Beach,Florida,American David Toms,44,holds the 2nd round lead,having shot a 68 -10.Countryman Nick Watney follows at -9,while Luke Donald of England,Graeme McDowell of Scotland,and Americans Lucas Glover and Steve Stricker share 3rd place.Toms has two Top 10 finishes so far this year for an earnings total of 700,215 dollars.
The broader stock market could not hold a lead this week,with the S&P 500 closing down a modest 2.43.Nor was it hopeful about next week,as the S&P futures slid 13.50 early Friday evening.Perhaps inflation fears and deficit problems got the best of it.Bond index futures rose.
