Kuchar two clear at rainy Whistling Straits

Golf Betting Lines

08/13/2010 - Kohler, WI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Matt Kuchar posted a three-under 69 on Friday to stay atop the leaderboard after his second round of the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits.

Kuchar, the first-round leader, finished 36 holes at eight-under 136 and is two in front with several players yet to complete the second round.

Friday was the second day in a row that the round was delayed because of fog. The golfers waited two hours and 40 minutes to start play. The start of the tournament was pushed back more than three hours Thursday morning, then eventually suspended due to darkness with 78 players left on the course.

Rain began to fall at Whistling Straits Friday afternoon, but play hasn't been stopped.

Yet.

The forecast calls for heavy storms Friday evening and possibly into Saturday.

Due to all of the fog delays, there is no way the second round will be completed until Saturday at the earliest. Half of the field has yet to tee off in round two, and a large portion of the group playing round two hasn't finished.

Tiger Woods, a four-time PGA Champion, followed his worst start as a professional last week at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational with a one-under 71 on Thursday. He hasn't teed off in the second round.

Phil Mickelson, the 2005 PGA Champion, is two-under in his second round and is one-under for the championship.

Nick Watney and Simon Khan share second place at six-under par, but are in the middle of their second rounds.

Bryce Molder, Kuchar's collegiate teammate at Georgia Tech, carded a five- under 67 on Friday and is tied in the clubhouse with Jason Dufner (66), teenager Seung Yul Noh (71) and Dustin Johnson (68) at five-under 139.

Kuchar took the first-round lead Friday morning when he returned to finish the round. After a quick turnaround, Kuchar collected his first second-round birdie from 12 feet at the par-five second.

At the par-four sixth, Kuchar hit a terrible drive into a hazard and had to take a penalty drop. He walked off with a bogey, but stayed in a tie for the lead at five-under par.

Kuchar took sole possession of the lead with a short birdie putt at the par- five 11th. One hole later, he ran home a seven-footer for birdie at the par- three 12th and made it three in a row thanks to a five-footer at 13.

Kuchar was three ahead and parred his last five holes for his spot atop the leaderboard.

Kuchar has never won a major championship and is currently seventh on the United States Ryder Cup points list. Eight automatic spots will be finalized at the completion of the PGA Championship.

Big East Conference odds

Work left to do: Villanova, Syracuse, DePaul, West Virginia, Providence

Notre Dame and Louisville appear to have done enough to make the move, so we'll make them locks. The Cardinals, despite a modest RPI, are trending way up and have clinched at least a tie for third in the Big East, which should be more than enough with their pair of big road wins. Villanova got back to .500 and gets back to more solid footing. Syracuse got a very important road win and crippled a fellow contender in the process. West Virginia's fate could be in its hands Tuesday at Pitt.

Work left to do:

Villanova [18-9 (7-7), RPI: 21, SOS: 5] Pounded Rutgers to get back to .500. If Cats can get their last two (at UConn, vs. Syracuse), that should be enough with strong computer numbers and a host of wins away from The Pavilion. The Cats have beaten Texas and swept the Big 5 (never easy in Philly), but have a couple of losses to bubble teams (Xavier, Drexel), too. I still think they'll be OK, possibly even at 8-8.

Syracuse [20-8 (9-5), RPI: 53, SOS: 62] History says 10 wins will be plenty, but it might be hard for the Orange to get that last one with a final two vs. G'town, which is trying to win the league title, and at Villanova, which will be desperate for a W. The relative lack of nonconference heft and the weak computer numbers are still concerns, but the Orange have won four in a row and got a very, very big win at Providence on Saturday.

DePaul [16-12 (8-7), RPI: 54, SOS: 18] Beat Cincy and should get past South Florida to get to 9-7, but then what? They have beaten Kansas and Cal (right after the DeVon Hardin injury) earlier this season, but also have lost to Bradley and Purdue, among others. They'll likely need a couple of BE tourney wins, too, but we'll see ...

West Virginia [19-7 (8-6), RPI: 58, SOS: 125] The game at Pitt on Tuesday night could decide the Mountaineers' fate (barring a deep tournament run). They can still get to 9-7 in the Big East without it by beating Cincinnati, but the nine wins would be against UConn, Villanova, St. John's, South Florida, DePaul, Rutgers, Seton Hall twice and the Bearcats. Beating bubble foes is fine, but where's the beef? Outside of beating PG-less UCLA in nonconference play (still a top quality win), there's not a lot to fall back on (besides maybe NC State). WVU vs. Syracuse would be an interesting debate, as the teams don't play in the Big East regular season. WVU has the best win, but Cuse has played the much better schedule.

Providence [17-10 (7-7), RPI: 70, SOS: 33] The Friars likely saw their at-large hopes die at home in the four-point loss to Syracuse, barring an unexpected run to the Big East semis or more. The RPI, bad already, won't be helped by playing St. John's and South Florida in the final two league games.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
