09/02/2010 - Canonsburg, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Scott Dunlap and Geoffrey Sisk both carded rounds of six-under 65 on Thursday to share the 18-hole lead at the inaugural Mylan Classic.
Dunlap and Sisk collected eight birdies and two bogeys apiece on the Southpointe course to take a one-stroke lead over seven players, including Tommy Gainey.
With two victories already this season, Gainey is seeking an automatic promotion to the PGA Tour, rewarded to any player who wins three Nationwide Tour events in the same season.
Two other players -- money leader Chris Kirk and Martin Piller -- have also won twice this season, but neither one is in the field this week to compete with Gainey.
Joining Gainey at 66 were Dicky Pride, Brent Delahoussaye, Brian Smock, Jonathan Kaye, Paul Stankowski and Bronson La'Cassie.
PGA Tour player Rocco Mediate, a native of nearby Greensburg, Pa., led a six- way tie at 67 after making his first career start in a Nationwide Tour event.
Dunlap is a 47-year-old grinder whose career stretches back to the inaugural Nationwide Tour season in 1990. He has captured two wins on the developmental tour, the last coming in Panama in 2008.
On Thursday, Dunlap played in the second group off the No. 1 tee and made an early bogey at the second hole. But he bounced back with three birdies to shoot a 33 on the front nine.
Dunlap started birdie-bogey on the back nine, but later birdied four of his final five holes to get into the clubhouse with the early lead.
Sisk started on the 10th tee and birdied six of his first seven holes, shooting a 30 on the back nine. He followed with an up-and-down front nine, making two birdies and two bogeys to join Dunlap atop the leaderboard.
The 45-year-old Sisk has never finished better than a tie for third place on tour. He has missed the cut in 11 of his 17 starts this season.
Sam Saunders, the grandson of Arnold Palmer, opened with a 70 while playing on a sponsor's exemption. Palmer is the tournament's honorary chairman and a native of Latrobe, Pa.
NOTES: Mediate was eligible for the Mylan Classic because he did not qualify for the PGA Tour playoffs...Dunlap was a two-time winner on the Canadian Tour in the 1990s.
