| Holmes and Allenby lead by 1 at THE PLAYERS Championship |
J.B. Holmes fired an early 6-under 66 in the morning, and Aussie Robert Allenby tied him for the lead in late afternoon. Two-time winner Davis Love lll also had it at -6 for a while but bogeys at 14, 16 and 18 dropped him to a 69, -3 finish. The gentle breeze and receiving greens allowed almost 90 players to shoot a subpar round, resulting in an exceptionally bunched-up leaderboard. The betting is tough this week, especially if the wind doesn’t show at TPC Sawgrass. The wind is the key element that makes this rather short course alive and difficult. Golf betting is exciting and fun, check out the pairings and the odds at BetPhoenix.com Sportsbook and put a wager on your favorite players on each round. The usually challenging TPC Sawgrass was there for the taking on Thursday, and if the playing conditions stay the same throughout the tournament, it will bring a lot of players in contention in an event usually dominated by the elite. 49-year-old Kenny Perry, who’s been training and lost a few pounds, finished with a 5-under 67 along with Lee Westwood, in a group of players. Westwood’s unforced error at the easiest hole on the course par-5 16th – he sent his second in the water from just over 200 yards- was the only blemish on his card. The Brit has been playing well all year and will be a factor over the weekend. Favorite Phil Mickelson struggled in the morning but managed to salvage his opening round with a 2-under 70. He’s got the chance to claim the No. 1 spot in the world with a win this week, providing Tiger Woods doesn’t finish in the top 5. Tiger had the same kind of day, fighting with his swing from the start. He made his first birdie at the par-5 ninth hole, one of three players to reach the green in two. He also birdied the 11, and a first smile appeared on his face when he got it to -3 after he birdied the 15. He stood on the 18th tee with the opportunity to shoot his first ever bogey-free round at THE PLAYERS, but an over- hooked drive ended in the water leading to a closing bogey. It was a laboring opening round for the World No. 1, who missed the cut last week at Quail Hollow for only the sixth time of his career. This is the best time to get started in Golf betting, THE PLAYERS Championship features the season’s strongest field and it doesn’t get better with such a tight leaderboard after the first round.
