Weather woes remain at Puerto Rico Open

Golf Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A new day brought only more weather problems for the PGA Tour's Puerto Rico Open, which still wasn't halfway through the first round when play was suspended Friday because of darkness.

Rain continued to pose a problem at the Trump International course, which has seen more than a foot of the wet stuff since last weekend.

Skip Kendall reached five-under par through his first nine holes to take a one-shot lead over two players, but only half of the field had even teed off following two stop-and-start days.

On Thursday, only 18 players hit shots before play was suspended for the day because of rain. The first round resumed for 21 minutes Friday morning before being stopped again.

After a nine-hour delay, golfers were sent back on the course at 4:35 p.m. local time and got in only two hours of play before the round was suspended yet again because of darkness.

Norway's Henrik Bjornstad discovered his new tee time was 5:34 p.m. and said on his Twitter page: "Waited all day to play 3 holes? What a joke." He actually finished four holes and went one-over par on them.

The plan is to resume the first round Saturday morning at 7:10 a.m. local time -- 6:10 a.m. (et) -- although the Weather Channel is forecasting even more rain for the area.

The PGA Tour said the already sodden course received six-tenths of an inch of rain Friday. That came after it got 6.6 inches on Thursday and more than five inches over the previous six days.

"A complete mess," Bjornstad tweeted.

Kendall birdied three of the eight holes he completed Friday in between stoppages. He had eagled his first hole, the par-four 10th, before play was halted on Thursday.

Richard S. Johnson, who was through eight holes, and Kevin Streelman, who has played seven, were tied for second place at four-under par. Omar Uresti reached the back nine at three-under.

Ten players were tied at two-under par, while John Daly was among a large group knotted at one-under. Only 66 players in a full field had finished at least one hole.

"Just got in from a wet round -- watching some television and goin to bed," Daly, who had an eagle and a bogey, said on his Twitter page. "[My tee time is] at 7:10am."

Hopefully, his finger were crossed.

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.
