Scott Leaves DO From Championship

Golf Betting Lines

Rickie Fowler and Vijay Singh are among 10 players tied for seventh at minus- two.

 

Scott, who earned his seventh PGA Tour win last year at the Texas Open, parred the first two holes before rolling in a 20-footer for birdie on the third. He made it two in a row with a 25-foot birdie putt on No. 4.

 

At the par-four 10th, Scott's drive found the right rough, and his second made it to the right fringe. However, he three-putted for bogey from there to slip back to minus-two.

 

"I think the key to my round was hitting a lot of fairways, which gave me an opportunity to hit the greens. The few fairways that I did miss, I didn't get into too much trouble," Scott stated. "It was kind of a stress-free round, which is a nice way to start."

 

Haas caught fire in the middle of the back nine, his opening nine on Thursday. After three pars to open his round, Haas drained a 16-footer for birdie on the 13th.

 

His second found the chipping area right of the green. From there, he played his third to 14 feet and two-putted for bogey to slide back into a share of the lead. Haas parred the last two to remain there.

 

The other five that played the U.S. Junior here with Scott are outside the top 10 after one round. Glover withdrew after nine holes citing illness, Immelman carded a one-under 69, Marino posted an even-par 70, Mahan stumbled to a two- over 72 and O'Hair struggled to a six-over 76 that included a seven-over 42 on his opening nine, the back nine.

 

NOTES: Justin Rose, the defending champion, is tied for 29th after opening with an even-par 70....Amateur Patrick Cantlay continued his solid play with a 70. Cantlay was low amateur at the U.S. Open, where he tied for 21st, and he followed that with a share of 24th last week at the Travelers Championship...Graham DeLaet withdrew with a back injury...Like last year, the par-three eighth was the most difficult hole on Thursday.

 

Do will face Stephanie Kono, a 2 & 1 winner over Catherine Dolan.

 

The story of the day was Woods, who defeated Bethany Wu, 2-up, to reach the round of 16.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
