Golf Betting Lines

Springfield, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boo Weekley fired a nine-under 63 Friday to take a one-stroke lead after two rounds of the Price Cutter Charity Championship. Weekley completed 36 holes at 16-under-par 128. Weekley's total of 128 tied the 36-hole record set by Joe Ogilvie in 2003 and matched last year by Troy Matteson.

 

Ken Duke, who won the Charity Pro-Am at The Cliffs earlier this year, also shot 63 to move into a share of second place at 15-under-par 129. He was joined there by 2002 U.S. Amateur winner Ricky Barnes (64).

 

Weekley, whose best tour finish was a share of third earlier this year at the Chattanooga Classic, started on the 10th tee Friday and opened with back-to- back birdies to get to nine-under. After he parred the next four holes, Weekley birdied 16 and 18 to turn in minus-11.

 

Weekley, who turns 33-years-old on Sunday, caught fire down the stretch. He birdied the par-four fifth and came right back with a birdie on six. Weekley was not done.

 

"I've just been focused on hitting the fairways," Weekley stated. "I'm hitting it solid, but there are a couple of shots I haven't mastered yet in my swing of thoughts. Basically out here it is going to be a putting contest. I hit a lot of good putts today."

 

Barnes collected just one birdie over his first four holes, and that came on the par-five 11th. He birdied three straight from the 14th to get to 11-under.

 

After three pars in a row around the turn, Barnes carded four more birdies on the front nine to gain his share of second place.

 

Athens Regional Foundation Classic winner Paul Gow shot 66 Friday. He leads a group of eight players at 11-under-par 133.

 

The cut line fell at six-under-par 138 with 67 players moving on to the final two rounds. This is the sixth time in tour history a cut was minus-six. There were two events -- 1991 Dakota Dunes Open and 2004 Henrico County Open -- that had a cut at seven-under par for the lowest cut in tour history.

 

Sergio Garcia fired a seven-under 65 Saturday to climb to 12-under-par 204 and a share of second place. He was joined there Chris DiMarco, who posted a three-under 69, and Ernie Els, who also birdied the 18th to shoot 71.

 

Garcia and DiMarco both held a share of the lead during the third round with their stellar play. Former U.S. Open winner Jim Furyk, who played alongside Garcia, also had a share of the lead during the third round thanks to five birdies over his first 10 holes.

 

Springfield, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Overnight leader Boo Weekley posted a four- under 68 on Saturday to hold on to his piece of the lead after three rounds of the Price Cutter Charity Championship. Former U.S. Amateur Champion Jeff Quinney carded a seven-under 65 and Australian Nick Flanagan fired an eight-under 64 to join Weekley in the lead at 20-under-par 196 at Highland Springs Country Club.
