Golf Betting Lines

Rickie Fowler and Vijay Singh are among 10 players tied for seventh at minus- two.

 

Scott was one of six players -- along with Trevor Immelman, Lucas Glover, Steve Marino, Hunter Mahan and Aronimink member Sean O'Hair -- that competed at Aronimink in the 1997 U.S. Junior Amateur and are also playing this week.

 

The 30-year-old Australian stuck his approach six feet from the hole on the sixth to move to minus-three. He parred the last three holes on the front side.

 

Scott, who has missed four cuts in 10 starts this season, hit a stellar tee shot on the par-three 14th to two feet and kicked that in for birdie. At the 18th, Scott hit sand-wedge to 15 feet and converted that putt for birdie to get in at minus-four.

 

The 34-year-old Haas dropped his tee shot inside three feet on the 14th and made that for birdie to move to minus-two. He ran home a 32-footer for birdie on 15 and made it four in a row with an up-and-down birdie on the 16th.

 

Haas carded five straight pars around the turn. He converted a 15-footer for birdie on the fourth to move to minus-five. At the seventh, his tee ball missed the fairway well left, but he had a clear shot to the green.

 

"I just really focused on keeping the ball below the hole and getting the ball in play," Haas stated. "And to be honest, the holes I didn't get it in play, I hit great shots out of the rough and ended up making birdie off one of them, so that kind of helps."

 

NOTES: Justin Rose, the defending champion, is tied for 29th after opening with an even-par 70....Amateur Patrick Cantlay continued his solid play with a 70. Cantlay was low amateur at the U.S. Open, where he tied for 21st, and he followed that with a share of 24th last week at the Travelers Championship...Graham DeLaet withdrew with a back injury...Like last year, the par-three eighth was the most difficult hole on Thursday.

 

Do will face Stephanie Kono, a 2 & 1 winner over Catherine Dolan.

NFL Football Sports Betting

Two playoff teams from 2007 take center stage on the NFL Network Sunday night in a Week 2 NFL betting match-up when the (0-1) New England Patriots betting head south to Florida for a contest with the (1-0) Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

New England HC Bill Belichick couldn’t care less about the way his team plays in the preseason. With a chance to tie last week’s game with the Baltimore Ravens betting, He elected to go for the two-point conversion and outright victory. The conversion failed, and the Pats ended up falling to the Ravens by a 16-15 final count.

New England rolled off twelve unanswered points to give it a chance at securing the victory, but it never threatened to cover the 3.5-point spread. NFL bettors saw this one coming, as they bet the Ravens down from +6 to +3.5 as the week progressed. QB Tom Brady didn’t take part in the Patriots first preseason clash, but could see action this weekend.

His three replacements all put up embarrassing numbers. They went a combined 17 for 33, and threw three interceptions and no touchdowns. The New England defense was encouraging, as they held the Ravens to 2/12 third down conversions and surrendered just ten first downs. That ‘D’ should be bolstered with the addition of former Bucs and Denver Broncos betting safety John Lynch, who could make his Patriots debut on Sunday against his former mates.

HC Jon Gruden had to be impressed with the way his Bucs played on both sides of the ball in their dominating 17-6 victory over the Miami Dolphins in Week 1’s NFL pre-season betting action. Bucs bettors were quite happy with the effort, as they made a mockery of the fact that they were underdogs in the game.

The logjam at the quarterback position didn’t get any easier to separate for Gruden, as all four of his QBs had positive experiences in the first exhibition of 2008. The four combined to complete 28 of their 40 passes for 204 yards and a touchdown, and that was without starting QB Jeff Garcia in the lineup.

RB Michael Bennett had 19 carries and four receptions, totaling 90 yards and a touchdown. Expect to see more of Bennett, Kenneth Darby, and Earnest Graham, as they all compete for playing time with Warrick Dunn in the backfield this season. Defensively, the Bucs recorded four sacks and held the Fins offense in check all day.

First round draft pick Aqib Talib was impressive in the secondary, recording a tackle and two pass defenses in his debut. Don’t be surprised to see Talib in the starting lineup opposite Ronde Barber for the Bucs in ’08.

The betting trends suggest that NFL bettors should be backing the Bucs in this intra-conference exhibition.

These two teams hooked up last year in Tampa Bay, with the Bucs winning that game 13-10. The Buccaneers have only lost one preseason game at home dating back to the beginning of the ’05 preseason. The Patriots have had a mixed bag of results in their recent exhibitions. They have gone 2-2 ATS and SU each of the last three years.

New England currently sits as modest 1-point favorites in this preseason showdown with the ‘total’ now sitting at 34.5.
