Golf Betting Lines

09/04/2010 - Norton, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brandt Snedeker fired a seven-under 64 Saturday to join Jason Day in the lead after 36 holes of the Deutsche Bank Championship, the second of four FedExCup series playoff events.

Day, who shared the first-round lead with Zach Johnson, shot four-under 67 in round two. Day and Snedeker completed two rounds at 12-under-par 130.

Matt Kuchar, who leads the FedExCup points race, carded a six-under 65 to move into a share of third at minus-11. He was joined there by Charley Hoffman, who shot 67 Saturday.

Luke Donald also posted a 67 to move into fifth place at 10-under-par 132.

The top two players in the world rankings -- Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson -- both shot six-under 65 Saturday. Woods shares 29th at minus-five, while Mickelson is tied for eighth at the TPC Boston at eight-under-par 134.

The tournament remains on schedule as the effects of Hurricane Earl moved by the course without much fanfare. The wind was up on Saturday, but the course received less than a half-inch of rain.

The field lost another player on Saturday as Chad Campbell was disqualified before he teed off in the second round. Tournament officials realized Friday evening that Campbell never register on-site, which is cause for disqualification.

Campbell entered the event 83rd on the FedExCup points list, and therefore is out of the final two playoff events because of the disqualification.

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).

As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).

Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.

A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.

Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.

"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.

De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.

The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.

The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.

De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.

Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.

But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.
