Dougherty takes early lead in Morocco
Golf Betting Lines
03/18/2010 -
Rabat, Morocco (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - England's Nick Dougherty shot a seven-under
66 to take the first-round lead Thursday at the European Tour's Hassan II Golf
Trophy.
Dougherty, who played the par-73 Red Course at Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, made
five birdies and an eagle on the back nine to climb atop the leaderboard.
Five more players posted a 66, but four of them played the par-72 Blue course.
Ireland's Peter Lawrie, Italy's Francesco Molinari, Argentina's Ricardo
Gonzalez, and Paraguay's Fabrizio Zanotti all trailed Dougherty by a shot at
six-under par.
S.S.P. Chowrasia had a six-under 67 on the Red course.
Dougherty, 27, captured his third tour win last season, but has struggled to
find his game recently. He has two missed cuts in five starts this season and
has finished inside the top 30 only once.
Some pointers from Denmark's Thomas Bjorn on the range Wednesday helped
Dougherty, who said his game is still a "work in progress."
"I played some really good stuff today and my short game was great in
general," said Dougherty. "So I'm very pleased with the score, but there's
still a bit of work to do on my game."
Dougherty was nowhere on the front nine. Two birdies and two bogeys put him at
just even-par around the turn. It was "a little bit of a battle" early on, as
Dougherty put it.
An eagle at the par-five 10th got the Englishman going in the right direction,
and he went on to collect five birdies the rest of the way. It was good enough
for the lead, but Dougherty said he would have accepted anything under par
Thursday.
Especially considering he was playing the tougher Red course.
"It's a challenging golf course and if you hit bad shots you tend to get
punished, so I was delighted and seven-under is a really good score," he said.
Friday's second round will also be played on both the Red and Blue courses,
while the final two rounds will be played on the Red course
NOTES: The event is a pro-am format with professionals and amateurs paired
together...Although the tournament has been around for more than 40 years,
this is the first time is has been part of the European Tour schedule...The
helpful Bjorn had a 72 on the Red course.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams
NFL Betting
It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash. NFL Wagering
