Golf Betting Lines

07/30/2010 - Omaha, NE (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Thompson carded a six-under 65 Friday to remain tied for the lead after 36 holes of the Cox Classic.

Thompson, who shared the first-round lead with Steven Bowditch, finished two rounds at 14-under-par 128. Kevin Chappell fired his second straight seven- under 64 to join Thompson atop the leaderboard.

Bob May, who lost to Tiger Woods in a playoff at the 2000 PGA Championship, fired a 63 to jump into a share third place at minus-12. He was joined there by Bowditch, who managed a four-under 67 in the second round.

Thompson parred his first three holes before picking up five shots over the next seven holes. After birdies on the fourth and sixth, he rolled in three straight birdie efforts from the eighth to get to minus-13.

The 31-year-old parred four straight from the 11th. Thompson got to 14-under with a birdie on the par-four 15th at Champions Run.

Thompson stumbled to a bogey on the 16th. but atoned for that mistake with an eagle on the par-five 17th. He closed with a bogey at the last to end at minus-14.

"It was very similar to yesterday, Thompson stated. "It was extremely stress- free. I felt completely comfortable both days in my skin. I never felt antsy or jumpy, those feelings you get when you're in the lead and that was pretty reassuring to know that."

Chappell, who is fourth on the Nationwide Tour money list, was even-par through eight holes with a birdie on the fourth, a bogey on No. 8 and six pars.

The 24-year-old made a 12-foot eagle putt on the short par-four ninth and followed with a birdie on the 10th to get to 10-under.

Chappell got within two of the lead thanks to birdies on the 13th and 15th. He closed with birdies on the final two holes to join Thompson in the lead.

"At this point, you have to keep doing your own thing and put yourself in position," said Chappell, who won the Fresh Express Classic earlier this year. "I tried to give myself opportunities and see where that put me at the end of the day."

David Mathis and A.J. Elgert both fired seven-under 64s Friday to move into a share of the fifth at 11-under-par 131. They were joined there by Scott Gardiner (67).

Amateur Morgan Hoffmann, who tied for ninth last week, carded a four-under 67 and headlines a group of nine players tied for eighth at minus-10.

NOTES: The cut fell at six-under-par 136 with 63 players moving on to the weekend...Those 63 are bunched within eight shots heading to the final two rounds...The cut at minus-six is the lowest in tourney history bettering the cut of minus-five, which occurred four times...Leading money winner Jamie Lovemark made the cut on the number, while last week's winner, D.J.
