Stanley 5 clear at Torrey Pines
Golf Betting Lines
01/28/2012 - La Jolla, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kyle Stanley posted a four-under 68 on Saturday and opened a comfortable five-shot lead after the third round of the Farmers Insurance Open.
He finished 54 holes at 18-under 198 and matched the tournament's record. Woody Blackburn established the mark in 1985, then Tiger Woods tied it in 2008. Both players went on to victory the year they posted 198s and if Stanley can keep the tradition alive, he will earn his first PGA Tour victory.
After splitting time at the North Course and South Course at Torrey Pines over the first two rounds, weekend action is at the South Course and Stanley was by far the best.
He held a one-shot lead at the start of the third round, and thanks to precision iron play and deep drives, Stanley is in command. He hit 89 percent of the greens in regulation and now the second-year PGA Tour player is in position for his first win.
"I need to keep doing what I'm doing," Stanley said in a televised interview.
Tour rookie John Huh and John Rollins both had 68s on Saturday and share second place at 13-under 203.
Reigning FedExCup champion Bill Haas (70) and Sang-Moon Bae (72) are knotted in fourth at minus-12.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
| Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame) Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma) Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State) Michael Bush (RB, Louisville) Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia) Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville) Chris Leak (QB, Florida) Mike Hart (RB, Michigan) Ted Ginn (WR, Ohio State) Darius Walker (RB, Notre Dame) Drew Tate (QB, Iowa) Marshawn Lynch (RB, Cal) Kenny Irons (RB, Auburn) Chad Henne (QB, Michigan) Kyle Wright (QB, Miami) Drew Stanton (QB, Michigan State) Kenneth Darby (RB, Alabama) JaMarcus Russell (QB, LSU) Drew Weatherford (QB, Florida State) Blake Mitchell (QB, South Carolina) Reggie Ball (QB, Georgia Tech) |
