Chappell builds 5-shot lead at Gretzky event

Golf Betting Lines

07/10/2010 - Clarksburg, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The tournament may be named for an all-time NHL great, but this week continues to be the Kevin Chappell show.

One day after he set the Nationwide Tour's 36-hole scoring record, Chappell built a five-shot lead at the Wayne Gretzky Classic with a three-under 68 in Saturday's third round.

Chappell finished the day with a 22-under 192, just two strokes off the tour's 54-hole scoring record.

However, Chappell did break the tournament's 54-hole mark by four shots.

Keegan Bradley had a 70 and slipped five shots off the lead at 17-under 197, but still remained in solo second place.

Gavin Coles (65) and Bobby Gates (67) were two shots further back at 15-under 199 and unlikely to be a factor in the final round considering how well the leader has been playing.

How good has Chappell been? He hasn't made a bogey through 54 holes, collecting 22 birdies and 32 pars on the way to his five-shot lead. He had three birdies and 15 pars Saturday -- his worst round of the week.

"[The putts] didn't fall in today, but I kept my momentum going into tomorrow and I built on a lead," Chappell said. "If the putts fall tomorrow it should be a fun round."

Chappell, who has led since an opening-round 61, is already two strokes better (in relation to par) than Roger Tambellini's winning score last year.

The 24-year-old is trying to become the first two-time winner on tour this season, having already captured the Fresh Express Classic in April.

NOTES: The tour's 54-hole total scoring record of 190 was set by David Branshaw at the 2002 Gila River Golf Classic...Arjun Atwal holds the tour record for most strokes under par through 54 holes at 24-under...Tambellini set the previous tournament 54-hole mark at 196 last year.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
