Golf Betting Lines

07/03/2009 - Edmonton, AB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brady Stockton posted a three-under 69 Friday to remain a co-leader after two rounds of the Edmonton Open.

Stockton, who shared the first-round lead with Robert Gates, completed 36 holes at 10-under-par 134. He was joined in the lead by Graham DeLaet and Jim Rutledge, who both shot 67 for the second straight day.

Hugo Leon also carded a five-under 67 and is alone in fourth at minus-eight. Gates tumbled into a tie for 25th at minus-four after stumbling to a three- over 75 on Friday.

Stockton birdied the first, but gave that stroke back with a bogey on the third. He rebounded with a birdie on the par-three fourth.

After birdies on eight and nine, Stockton faltered to a double-bogey on the par-four 11th. He recovered those lost strokes with birdies on 14 and 15. Stockton bogeyed the par-five 17th at Glendale Golf and Country Club, but birdied the last to share the second-round lead.

DeLaet ran off three birdies in a four-hole stretch from the 12th before tripping to a bogey on the 17th. Around the turn, he poured in three straight birdies from the first to jump to 10-under. He parred his final six holes to end there.

Rutledge, who played alongside DeLaet, birdied the 11th and 12th, but dropped a shot on 13. He birdied the 17th and around the turn moved to minus-eight with a birdie on the first.

He bogeyed the fourth, then birdied five and six. After a bogey on eight, Rutledge eagled the par-five ninth, his last, to finish at minus-10.

Barrett Jarosch (67), Yohann Benson (67), George Coetzee (70), Garrett Sapp (70) and Liam Kendregan (71) share fifth place at seven-under-par 137.

The cut line fell at one-under-par 143 with 70 players moving on to the weekend. Defending champion John Ellis made the cut on the number.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds

With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season.  What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season.  Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all.  Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13).  Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two.  Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury.  Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven.  Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury.  Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.

In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons.  Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4.  Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1).  The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this.  No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
