Nationwide Tour postpones Mexico Open

Golf Betting Lines

04/29/2009 - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The upcoming Mexico Open on the Nationwide Tour has been postponed due to the recent swine flu outbreak, which was announced Wednesday by Tour president Bill Calfee.

"Given the serious circumstances surrounding the swine flu outbreak, the Nationwide Tour has decided it is in everyone's best interests to reschedule the Mexico Open presented by Corona Light and play the tournament later in the season," Calfee said. "A significant number of lives have been lost in Mexico, which is tragic. There are more important things for people to focus on at the moment."

Originally scheduled to be played the week of May 18-24 at El Bosque Golf Club in Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico, the event's new date will be announced in the near future.

"With regard to new dates, we are in a position where we have options and will begin working with tournament personnel in Mexico to decide when the event will be played," Calfee added. "The PGA TOUR is very committed to the Mexico Open and looks forward to playing at El Bosque Golf Club."

Australian Jarrod Lyle captured the 2008 tournament by five shots over Matt Every. Lyle carded an eight-under 63 on the final day to earn his first career Nationwide Tour title.

This is the first time an event has been postponed on the Nationwide Tour since the 2003 Henrico County (VA) Open.

The Mexico Open owns a rich history dating back to 1944, with past winners such as: Roberto De Vicenzo, Lee Trevino, Billy Casper, Ben Crenshaw, Stewart Cink and Eduardo Romero.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
