Weather woes remain at Puerto Rico Open

Golf Betting Lines

03/12/2010 - Rio Grande, Puerto Rico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - A new day brought only more weather problems for the PGA Tour's Puerto Rico Open, which still wasn't halfway through the first round when play was suspended Friday because of darkness.

Rain continued to pose a problem at the Trump International course, which has seen more than a foot of the wet stuff since last weekend.

Skip Kendall reached five-under par through his first nine holes to take a one-shot lead over two players, but only half of the field had even teed off following two stop-and-start days.

On Thursday, only 18 players hit shots before play was suspended for the day because of rain. The first round resumed for 21 minutes Friday morning before being stopped again.

After a nine-hour delay, golfers were sent back on the course at 4:35 p.m. local time and got in only two hours of play before the round was suspended yet again because of darkness.

Norway's Henrik Bjornstad discovered his new tee time was 5:34 p.m. and said on his Twitter page: "Waited all day to play 3 holes? What a joke." He actually finished four holes and went one-over par on them.

The plan is to resume the first round Saturday morning at 7:10 a.m. local time -- 6:10 a.m. (et) -- although the Weather Channel is forecasting even more rain for the area.

The PGA Tour said the already sodden course received six-tenths of an inch of rain Friday. That came after it got 6.6 inches on Thursday and more than five inches over the previous six days.

"A complete mess," Bjornstad tweeted.

Kendall birdied three of the eight holes he completed Friday in between stoppages. He had eagled his first hole, the par-four 10th, before play was halted on Thursday.

Richard S. Johnson, who was through eight holes, and Kevin Streelman, who has played seven, were tied for second place at four-under par. Omar Uresti reached the back nine at three-under.

Ten players were tied at two-under par, while John Daly was among a large group knotted at one-under. Only 66 players in a full field had finished at least one hole.

"Just got in from a wet round -- watching some television and goin to bed," Daly, who had an eagle and a bogey, said on his Twitter page. "[My tee time is] at 7:10am."

Hopefully, his finger were crossed.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.

Bet NFL Sports Lines

Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.

Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.

A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.

Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.

Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.

Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.

And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.
