Creamer leads by three at suspended Women's Open

Golf Betting Lines

07/10/2010 - Oakmont, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Paula Creamer was one-under par through 13 holes of the third round Saturday when play was halted for the day at the U.S. Women's Open due to darkness.

Creamer was atop the leaderboard at minus-one and was three shots clear of Wendy Ward. Creamer, an eight-time winner on the LPGA Tour, is in search of her first major championship title.

Ward is also minus-one for her round and stands at plus-two through 17 holes of the third round.

The championship was playing catch up all day after inclement weather halted action on Friday and forced the second round to be completed earlier Saturday.

Once the second round was completed, players went off the first and 10th tees in threesomes. More than half the field managed to complete round three before darkness fell at Oakmont Country Club.

Creamer and Sakura Yokomine shared the lead when the second round was completed earlier Saturday.

Suzann Pettersen is alone in third at plus-three. Fifteen-year-old Alexis Thompson is the leader in the clubhouse at four-over-par 217. She carded a one-under 70 in the third round.

Thompson was joined in fourth place by Amy Yang (15 holes) and Brittany Lang (14 holes).

Creamer started her third round with three straight pars and that allowed her to take a one-shot lead at even-par, as Yokomine fell apart early in the third round.

The 23-year-old Creamer birdied the par-five fourth to move one ahead of Lang, who had birdied the second and fourth to gain a share of the lead. After a pair of pars, Creamer tripped to a bogey on the seventh, but was two clear of Lang, who bogeyed three of four holes from the fifth.

Creamer got back to minus-one with a birdie on the par-four 10th. She moved to two-under with a birdie on the long par-five 12th, a hole which she had bogeyed the first two rounds.

At the par-three 13th, Creamer faltered to a bogey in the waning light and that was her last hole of the day.

Creamer hasn't won a major, but has won several of the LPGA Tour's bigger events. She claimed the 2005 Evian Masters, the Tournament of Champions in 2007 and the 2008 Samsung World Championship.

The win at the Samsung stands as Creamer's last LPGA Tour victory as she has battled a thumb injury through most of last year and the earlier part of this season as well.

In fact, this is just Creamer fifth start of the year and fourth since having surgery on her injured left thumb.

Natalie Gulbis and Jeong Jang, who are both through 17 holes, are tied for seventh place at plus-five. They stand alongside In-Kyung Kim (16 holes) and Christina Kim (14 holes).

Karrie Webb (73), Na Yeon Choi (72) and Jiyai Shin (72) are tied for 11th at six-over-par 219. Stacy Lewis, Sophie Gustafson, Cristie Kerr and Yokomine also stand at plus-six with holes remaining in their third rounds.

NOTES: The third round is slated to resume at 8:00 a.m. (et) Sunday with the final round to follow at approximately 10:20 a.m....Defending champion Eun-Hee Ji is tied for 34th at 12-over par...Ji is plus-two through 13 holes of the third round...Amateur Kelli Shean, who shared second place after the first round, has struggled ever since...Shean has tumbled into 64th place at plus-19 after shooting a 12-over 83 in round three.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL BETTING

NCAA Football Betting

Many fans thought it was the best side in the nation by the end of last season. This year, the polls have built on Georgia's momentum and granted it the No. 1 preseason ranking, followed by Ohio State and USC. (The Associated Press has the Buckeyes at No. 2; USA Today took the Trojans.)

"To have people believing we have one of the best teams in the nation going into this thing, it's exciting for us," Bulldogs coach Mark Richt told the AP. "I don't think anything is guaranteed, but we certainly have put ourselves in position where at least the college football world thinks we're pretty good."

Georgia Bulldogs - 9.5 wins

There's no question they're good, but the Bulldogs have one of the toughest 12-game schedules in the nation, mostly because they play in the powerhouse Southeastern Conference. Away games at No. 15 Arizona State, No. 7 LSU and No. 10 Auburn loom large, with contests between the hedges versus No. 24 Alabama and No. 18 Tennessee as well as the World's Largest Cocktail Party in Jacksonville versus No.5 Florida.

Ohio State Buckeyes - 10 wins

Like the Bulldogs, the Buckeyes also have a number of tough road contests in 2008. After two scrimmages dressed up as real games versus Youngstown State and Ohio, it's off to face USC. Other tough away games include No.13 Wisconsin in October and No. 20 Illinois in November. Granted, it should be pretty easy sledding at the Horseshoe. In fact, the only ranked team that travels to Columbus is No. 22 Penn State, in October.

USC Trojans - 10.5 wins

A similarly light schedule awaits the Trojans of Southern California, which is why the oddsmakers' total is one win more and the over is currently commanding -150 odds. Pete Carroll's troops only play three ranked teams in 2008, and all of those games are at home. After what should be an easy trip to Virginia to start things off on Aug. 30, the Trojans get two weeks to prepare for Ohio State in Los Angeles. Their two other ranked opponents, No. 21 Oregon and No. 15 Arizona State, visit in consecutive weeks to start the month of October. After that, the competition eases up. Of course, this is the same highly-touted school that lost to Stanford in 2007 and Oregon State in 2006. And don't discount the fact that USC plays its biggest rivals, Notre Dame and UCLA, back-to-back to close out the regular season. On paper, the Trojans are far superior, but motivation will be high for the Irish and Bruins, especially if their historic foes are in national-title contention.

Odds to Win the Heisman Trophy

Tim Tebow, Florida - 7/2
He won it last year, so it's no surprise he's the favorite to do it again, making him just the second player to go back-to-back. Ohio State's Archie Griffin turned the trick in 1974 and 1975, and Tebow's coach, Urban Meyer, is pretty sure his star quarterback can match the Buckeyes legend.

"There has never been anyone quite like him," Meyer told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. "I am very lucky to be his coach."

Chris Wells, Ohio State - 5/1

The man they call "Beanie" was a star recruit out of high school, so it's not like nobody knew who the star tailback was before he rushed for 576 yards as a freshman in 2006 and 1,609 as a sophomore. But perhaps his finest moment came last year versus Michigan when he rumbled for 222 yards and two touchdowns in the Buckeyes' 14-3 victory over the hated Wolverines.

Knowshon Moreno, Georgia - 8/1

If the Bulldogs are to live up to expectations, they'll need a huge effort from their sophomore running back. This might be the last year of college ball for Moreno, who rushed for 1,334 yards and for 14 touchdowns as a freshman, while adding 253 receiving yards on 20 receptions, so expect big things for the man from Belford, N.J.
