Simon Khan (71), Hennie Otto (71), Simon Dyson (75), Nick Dougherty (71), Anthony Wall (69) and another member of Ian Woosnam's victorious Ryder Cup team, Henrik Stenson (71), share ninth place at six-under-par 209.

 

Cary, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tom Jenkins used four back-nine birdies on Saturday to post a six-under 66 and move atop the leaderboard after two rounds of the SAS Championship. He stands at 10-under-par 134 and is one ahead at Prestonwood Country Club. Chip Beck, playing in his third Champions Tour event, fired a seven-under 65 and is tied for second place with overnight co-leader Loren Roberts, who shot a four-under 68. The pair is knotted at minus-nine.

 

Adcock moved one ahead with a seven-foot birdie putt at the ninth, but Jenkins matched him in first with a long birdie putt at the 10th. Adcock once again forged ahead with a 12-footer for birdie at 12, but things changed at the 13th.

 

Jenkins rolled in a 17-foot birdie putt at 13, while Adcock made a mess of the hole en route to a bogey. Jenkins was now one ahead, but Roberts was making a move.

 

"I had a lot of chances on the back nine," admitted Roberts. "I hit every fairway and every green. I'm looking for some good things tomorrow. I like the way I'm playing now."

 

While two of the members of the final group were duking it out, Beck steadily climbed up the board. He birdied three and four, but it was his play on the back nine that vaulted him into contention.

 

"It's a big horse race here," said Beck, looking for his first win since 1992. "I'm just so thankful to have the opportunity to play golf again. It's like heaven on earth."

 

Jay Haas, second to Roberts on the tour's money list, carded a six-under 66 and is alone in fifth place at seven-under-par 137. Last week's winner Andy Bean (69) and Jim Ahern (70) are tied for sixth place at minus-five.

 

St. Andrews, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Padraig Harrington carded a four- under 68 Sunday and ran away with his second Alfred Dunhill Links Championship title. Harrington finished at 16-under-par 271, five clear of the field. The Irishman also won this title in 2002.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
