Quinney, who was in the first group off in the morning, turned in five-under thanks to a birdie on the 17th. Around the turn, he birdied two of his first three holes. The 27-year-old drained back-to-back birdies from the par-four seventh to grab his piece of the lead.
LaBelle also started on the second nine Thursday and he opened with consecutive birdies from the 10th. He carded birdies on 15 and 18 to make the turn in four-under.
LaBelle parred the next three before closing with back-to-back birdies from the eighth to cap a bogey-free round.
Ken Duke, who won the Charity Pro-Am at The Cliffs, stands alongside Henrico County Open winner Matt Kuchar and five other players at minus-six.
"I never saw it. I didn't see the flag," admitted Woods, who won this title last year and in 2000, both at St. Andrews. "Just left of the TV towers was where I was aiming. I was trying to hold it on the wind. I hit it pretty good."
This was Woods' second important eagle in as many days at Royal Liverpool. On Thursday, he drained a 35-footer at the closing hole to get within one of the overnight lead.
Two-time U.S. Open champion Retief Goosen eagled the 16th, bogeyed 17, but birdied the last to polish off a six-under 66. He is alone in third place at minus-eight.
Miguel Angel Jimenez (70) and Adam Scott (69) are knotted in fourth place at seven-under-par 137. Englishman Robert Rock carded his second consecutive, three-under 69 on Friday and is alone in sixth place at minus-six.
The No. 1 player in the world jump-started his round at the par-four eighth. He ran home a 60-foot birdie putt to reach seven-under par for the championship. Woods collected two birdies in a row from the 11th to get to minus-nine.
At the same time, DiMarco, who was tied with Woods until the eagle, missed a 20-foot par putt at the 17th. The three-shot swing left Woods in command and a four-foot birdie putt at 16 sent him to minus-12.

Michael Vick is back, Brett Favre isn't and the NFC East remains the best division in the NFC, maybe in all of football.
As players start to gather for the start of another season, some things change and some stay the same in the world of the NFL.
The NFC East has been the dominant division in the National Conference for a while, despite limited playoff success, save for the New York Giants surprise Super Bowl win two seasons ago.
Hell, there's a generation of kids in Texas who have never seen the Cowboys win a playoff game (last win was in 1996).
But collectively, the Giants, Eagles, Cowboys and Redskins (well, maybe not so much the Redskins) are as good as a division gets in an NFC conference that has struggled to stay competitive with the AFC side.
Sports bettors have both acknowledged the NFC East's dominance, as one glance at the NFL future odds menu will show.
Looking over the NFL betting odds at online sports book MySportsbook.com we see the top three teams listed to win the NFC Championship are all from the NFC East:
Dallas Cowboys - 7 - 1
Philadelphia Eagles - 13 - 2
New York Giants - 9 - 2
Slotting in behind these three are two teams from the NFC North: the Minnesota Vikings (15-2) and the Chicago Bears (10-1).
Again, despite the lack of recent playoff success, the Dallas Cowboys are popular with the sports betting community, as they hold 14% of all the money wagered on who will win the NFC Championship.
So far, the New York Giants are the bettors' favorite to represent their conference in the Super Bowl, as they have 24% of the overall NFC Championship betting volume.
And what about the Philadelphia Eagles? For the most part, the Eagles had a very productive offseason, the kind that could bring them back to the top.
They had a good draft adding the likes of WR Jeremy Maclin and RB LeSean McCoy.
Unfortunately, the team received a blow when long-time defensive coordinator Jim Johnson passed away on Tuesday.
But this team will make a real run at the division title this year. Going into the regular season, Philly is listed at +240 to win the division.
Last season the Eagles were 9-6-1 SU and 10-6 ATS.
Teams from the NFC East will play teams from the AFC West in the regular season and the Eagles haven't really been a good bet in the last 20 games against the likes of San Diego, Oakland, K.C. and Denver, only going 8-12 ATS.
Two seasons removed from that Super Bowl title, the New York Giants see themselves listed as the odds-on favorite in NFC East championship futures at +162.
Plaxico Burress is gone and with him all the bad publicity surrounding the gun in the sweatpants incident, but can they replace him in the offense?
Last season the Giants were a very reliable bet going 12-4 ATS.
In the Giants' last 20 games against fellow teams from the NFC East; they are 13-7 ATS.
Dallas is listed at +240 to win the division.
Dallas went 9-7 SU and 7-9 ATS last season and with the amount of talent the Cowboys have, a similar performance won't do.
The Cowboys have been atrocious against divisional rivals, going 6-14 ATS in their last 20.
The Washington Redskins are longshots to win the division at +550.
