Couples cruises to lead at Toshiba Classic

Golf Betting Lines

03/06/2010 - Newport Beach, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Fred Couples fired a seven-under 64 on Saturday to move to the top of the leaderboard after two rounds of the Toshiba Classic.

Couples finished 36 holes at 12-under 130 and missed Rodger Davis' 2003 and Jay Haas' 2007 tournament record by a stroke. Couples is two shots ahead at Newport Beach Country Club.

Tom Lehman had a six-under 65 on Saturday and is tied for second place with first-round co-leader Chien Soon Lu, who posted a four-under 67 on Saturday. The pair is knotted at 10-under 132.

There was a small weather delay on Saturday when a storm moved through and poured rain on Newport Beach Country Club. Everyone completed the second round on Saturday and it was someone becoming all too familiar with the top of the leaderboard that emerged on Saturday.

Couples parred the first, then wedged his approach at the second to inches to set up a tap-in birdie. From the left rough, Couples hooked his second to nine feet and rolled in the eagle putt to take the lead.

While Couples struggled hitting fairways, he was able to save par for the most part. He hit another wedge to inches for an easy birdie at seven, then found the right rough off the tee at nine. Couples hit a spectacular second shot to three feet and holed the short birdie putt.

An errant drive at the 10th finally cost Couples. He hit it in the left rough and near a tree. Couples had to pitch out in the fairway left-handed, but his third shot came up 25 feet short and he missed the par putt.

Couples was nine-under par, but still on top of the leaderboard, but with company. A birdied at the par-five 15th got him one ahead, then birdies at 16 and 18 gave him his two-shot cushion.

Couples has been very, very good so far this year on the Champions Tour. In two starts, he has a win and a runner-up and is first on both the money list and the Charles Schwab Cup race.

Loren Roberts and Ronnie Black both carded rounds of four-under 67 on Saturday and share fourth place at eight-under 134.

Mark Wiebe, one of the three first-round co-leaders, managed an even-par 71 and is tied for sixth place with John Cook (66), Bob Gilder (66) and defending champion Eduardo Romero (69). The group finished at six-under 136.

Bob Tway, the final first-round leader, struggled to a one-over 72 in round two and shares 10th with Corey Pavin (69), David Peoples (68) and Gary Hallberg (70) at minus-five.

NOTES: Hale Irwin, who has the most wins in Champions Tour history, shot a four-under 67 and is tied for 14th at minus-four...Bernhard Langer, who holed out from a bunker to win the Allianz Championship in a playoff, had a one-over 72 and fell to a tie for 40th at even-par 142...Andy Bean and Dave Stockton both withdrew.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl

NFL Super Bowl Betting

The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.

Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.

The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
