Chad Collins leads in Puerto Rico

Golf Betting Lines

03/13/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chad Collins found himself alone in the lead during the suspended second round of the Puerto Rico Open.

Collins is six-under par through 11 holes of his second round and is in first place at nine-under par at Trump International Golf Club.

The second round was suspended due to darkness as this tournament tries to catch up from two days of disastrous weather.

Half of the field has yet to tee off in round two, so he second round will continue on Sunday, then the 36-hole cut will be made and the third round will commence. The plan is for the completion of the third round on Monday, then the final round in order to get in 72 holes.

The problem with that scenario is that there is more bad weather forecast for Monday and one has to wonder how much more Trump International Golf Club can take.

A total of 6.6 inches of rain fell on the course on Thursday. Six-tenths of an inch of rain hit Trump International on Friday and in the last week, there has been over a foot of rain.

Paul Stankowski shot a two-under 70 in the second round and is in the clubhouse at eight-under 136. Jeff Overton is two-under through 14 holes and Jhonattan Vegas is five-under after 13, but both are also at eight-under for the tournament.

Collins, who finished second on the Nationwide Tour money list last year, began on the 10th tee Saturday and flew out of the gate with birdies at 10 and 12.

He birdied three of his last four holes on his opening nine to reach eight- under par for the championship.

A bogey at the first hole dropped him out of the lead, but an eagle at the par-five second gave him first all to himself.

Nicholas Thompson and James Nitties are both three-under on their second rounds and seven-under for the tournament. They are joined in a tie for fifth with Skip Kendall and Kris Blanks, who shared the first-round lead at 65, but won't play round two until Sunday.

"Probably one of the longest rounds I've ever played," joked Kendall, considering his first round took three days to complete.

Guy Boros (67) and former PGA Champion Steve Elkington (70) are knotted in ninth at place at six-under 138. Woody Austin, Kent Jones and Peter Gustafsson are six-under on the course.

NOTES: Dicky Pride, David Peoples, Brett Quigley and Craig Bowden all withdrew...The first and second rounds are being played with preferred lies in closely mown areas...Only six players completed round two before the horn sounded.

It's less than a month until the NHL hockey betting season opens at MySportsbook.com and preparations are underway for another battle in the race to hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2007.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.

Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.

Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.
