Golf Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jonathan Kaye fired a course-record, eight- under 63 Thursday to grab a two-stroke lead after the first round of the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational.

Kaye, a two-time winner on the PGA Tour, broke the course record by two strokes on the Scarlet Course at Ohio State University Golf Club.

Scott Brown posted a 65 and is alone in second. D.J. Brigman, Nick Flanagan, Tjaart van der Walt and William McGirt share third place at five-under 66.

Kaye tripped out of the gate with a bogey on the second. He erased that mistake with a birdie on the fourth and came right back with another birdie at the par-three fifth.

The 39-year-old birdied the next par-three, No. 8. Kaye followed that with a hole-out eagle on the par-four ninth, which moved him to minus-four.

"I had a nice number and just tried to smooth an eight-iron 164 yards," Kaye said of his eagle. "The ball had eyes on it when it hit on the green. It went dead left, right in the cup."

Around the turn, Kaye picked up a birdie on the par-five 12th. He dropped in back-to-back birdie efforts from the 15th to move one ahead of Brown.

Kaye closed with a birdie at the last to push his lead to two strokes.

Brown was in the second group out in the morning wave off the first tee. He had a similar start to Kaye as he also bogeyed No. 2. Brown came back with birdies on three and five.

A birdie on the eighth helped Brown make the turn at minus-two. He converted a birdie chance on the 10th, then made eagle on the par-five 12th.

Brown birdied the 15th, then parred the final three holes to head to the clubhouse with the early lead.

"This is a very good golf course," Brown stated. "The greens are soft and it gives you a chance to be a little more aggressive, but you have to take some chances too."

Daniel Summerhays, who became the first amateur to win on the Nationwide Tour when he captured the 2008 crown, opened with a four-under 67. He was joined in seventh place by David McKenzie, Camilo Benedetti, Joe Affrunti, Michael Putnam and Kyle Stanley.

NOTES: Tommy Gainey, who earned his second win of the season last week and took over the top spot on the tour's money list, opened with a one-over 72, which left him tied for 77th...Benedetti aced the par-three eighth...There are 10 amateurs in the field this week with Russell Henley posting the best score, a three-under 68.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
