Wilson four ahead after 54 holes in Canada

Golf Betting Lines

07/24/2010 - Etobicoke, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dean Wilson carded his third straight five- under 65 Saturday to take a four-stroke lead after three rounds of the Canadian Open.

Wilson, whose lone win was at the 2006 International, finished 54 holes at 15- under-par 195. Wilson's total matched the 54-scoring record that Arnold Palmer set back in 1955.

Sweden's Carl Pettersson fired a 10-under 60 earlier Saturday to soar from the cut line into a share of second place at minus-11. He was joined there by Bob Estes (66) and second-round co-leader Tim Clark (69).

Pettersen had a chance to shoot 59, but his birdie putt at the last spun off the edge of the cup. He was hoping for the fifth 59 in tour history after Paul Goydos was the fourth in PGA Tour history to do so at the John Deere Classic.

The round was completed despite sporadic heavy rain that left water puddling in several fairways.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
