Clark, Wilson share Canadian Open lead

Golf Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Etobicoke, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tim Clark fired a six-under 64 Friday to grab a share of the lead after 36 holes of the Canadian Open.

Clark was joined in the lead by Dean Wilson, who carded a 65 in round two. They are tied at 10-under-par 130.

First-round leader Brent Delahoussaye posted a one-under 69 and slipped into a tie for third at minus-nine. He was joined there by Steve Wheatcroft, who shot four-under 66 Friday.

The second round was completed Friday despite a two-hour weather delay prior to the start of the round.

With a slightly different setup this week, players started on the first and ninth tees at St. George's Golf & Country Club for the first two rounds.

Clark, who finally broke through for his first PGA Tour win earlier this year at the Players Championship, started his round on the ninth, where he collected his first birdie.

The South African dropped in back-to-back birdie chances from the 11th to move to minus-seven. Clark parred four straight before a birdie on the 17th.

Around the turn, Clark birdied the third and fifth to climb to 10-under. He parred his final three holes.

"I certainly didn't expect to be scoring on this course," Clark admitted. "I thought in the Pro-Am it was going to be pretty tough. But you know, I've been hitting the driver really well and driving it in the fairway is a huge key on this golf course. I've done that and been able to stay out of trouble."

Wilson, whose lone PGA Tour win was at The International in 2006, got going with a birdie on the first. He gave that stroke back with a bogey at the fourth.

The 40-year-old atoned for that error with a birdie on the par-three sixth. Around the turn, Wilson moved to seven-under with a birdie at the 10th.

Wilson birdied 13 and 15 to move to nine-under. He was the first in the clubhouse at 10-under as he birdied the 17th.

"I'm happy the way I've been playing. I've missed a few cuts, so it's nice to get in contention and get in the mix," said Wilson, who has missed the cut in five of his last six starts. "So it just feels nice to have a little bit of control over my game."

J.J. Henry carded a five-under 65 Friday to move into a share of fifth at eight-under-par 132. He stands alongside Hunter Mahan (67), Rob Grube (66) and Brock Mackenzie (68).

Defending champion Nathan Green shot 65 to climb into a share of ninth at minus-seven. He was joined there by Bob Estes (67), Tim Herron (63), Vance Veazey (69) and Matt Jones (67).

NOTES: One day after Delahoussaye fired a 62 to match the tournament's 18-hole scoring record, Kevin Sutherland shot 62 on Friday...No. 8 Paul Casey, the highest ranked player in the field, tripped to a three-over 73, which put him over the cut line, which fell at one-under-par 139 with 79 players moving on to the weekend...Sean O'Hair, Fred Couples and Mike Weir were among those joining Casey with the weekend off.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.

MySportsbook.com's Super Bowl XLIII Betting Odds:

Pittsburgh Steelers -6.5 (-110), Over 46.5 (-110), -260 (Money line)

Arizona Cardinals +6.5 (-110), Under 46.5 (-110), +220 (Money line)
