Golf Betting Lines

04/25/2009 - Mazatlan, Mexico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion John Ellis and Eugene Smith are knotted atop the leaderboard after Saturday's third round of the Corona Mexican PGA Championship.

Ellis and Smith both posted rounds of five-under 67 to finish 54 holes at 10- under 206 at El Cid Golf & Country Club.

Andy Matthews and Stephen Dartnall also both shot 67s on Saturday and are tied for third at minus-nine.

Mauricio Molina (66), Wes Heffernan (67), Javier Quevedo (70) and Adam Speirs (71) are knotted in fifth at eight-under 208.

Ellis did most of his damage around the turn. He parred his first six holes, then rattled off four consecutive birdies starting at the par-five seventh hole.

His last birdie came at the par-four 15th and that put Ellis in the lead. He parred out to share first place.

Smith was even on his round after 11 holes, thanks to two birdies and two bogeys. He caught fire from the 12th with four consecutive birdies, including a chip-in at 13 and three putts inside 10 feet.

He scrambled for pars at both 16 and 17, then closed with a birdie to join the defending champion in first.

"I held it steady on the front nine and was one-under, but then bogeyed the 10th before I went on my run," said Smith, who is winless on the Canadian Tour.

Robert Gates (70), J.J. Rodriguez (70) and Scott Hawley (72) share ninth at minus-seven.

Second-round leader Andrew Parr struggled to a three-over 75 and fell into a share of 14th at five-under 211.

Problem with Bears?

Chicago, IL - New Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler and star linebacker Brian Urlacher shot down reports of a rift, saying they're simply not true.

"There's nothing between us," Cutler said Thursday, when he reported to training camp. "I just want to put that to rest. There never has been anything between us."

Urlacher added: "I never said what I was quoted as saying and that's it. I have a lot of respect for Jay. I think Jay knows that."
Former Bears receiver Bobby Wade caused a stir when he told Minneapolis radio station KFAN-AM that Urlacher used a profanity while questioning Cutler's manhood during a conversation in Las Vegas last weekend. Wade, who now plays for the Vikings, said Urlacher used a profane version of the word "wimp" during the interview that had to be edited out.
go radio station WSCR-AM also reported that Urlacher had to be restrained from confronting Cutler during organized team activities.
"I wouldn't go face-to-face with Brian, anyway," Cutler said. "No, that's never happened. I've hung out with Brian away from the facility numerous times and we've always gotten along."
Urlacher, noting he was limited by a groin injury, denied the reports in an interview with the Chicago Tribune and did it again when he reported to camp.
"I didn't practice this summer, so I don't know how I would fight the guy if I didn't practice," Urlacher said. "We have no problems. I'm excited about football starting. I'm excited to have him as our quarterback."
Why would Wade say that?
"I don't know," Urlacher said. "Maybe he's jealous because we have a good quarterback now."
Cutler said the first he heard of any friction was when he got a call from Urlacher to clear the air. Urlacher, however, said he had already taken several calls from teammates wondering if the reports were true when Cutler phoned.
"He called me and I said, What's up (expletive), what are you doing?'" a grinning Urlacher said, uttering the same word he allegedly used with Wade. "It's so dumb to me that this even got to this point, but it did and then here we are."
better place after going 9-7 and missing the playoffs for the second straight year. They have a franchise quarterback for the first time in decades after acquiring Cutler in an offseason trade with Denver. But there are questions about his attitude following a fallout with Broncos management and new coach Josh McDaniels.
His critics include former Bears coach Mike Ditka and former Indianapolis and Tampa Bay coach Tony Dungy, one of Smith's mentors. Smith, however, said Cutler has been a model teammate so far while denying any animosity with Urlacher.
"There's no issue with Jay and Brian, except Brian and Jay are both excited about being teammates for our club this year," coach Lovie Smith said. "No more than that. We can't spend a whole lot of time on something that isn't true. I have talked to the players. Whenever something comes out, you have to address it, but it's a non-issue."
In some ways, Cutler is getting a second chance in Chicago, an opportunity to repair his reputation.
Smith said another quarterback - Michael Vick - deserves one, although he doesn't see it happening with the Bears, who lack an experienced backup. The former Atlanta Falcons star, who served a 23-month sentence for running a dogfighting ring, said Thursday he is getting close to signing with a pro football team.
"A second chance, like everyone in society who has paid their debt to society," Smith said. "He deserves a second chance. As far as we're concerned, we like this team that we have right now."
Particularly the new quarterback.
"Me and Brian have been on a good relationship since I've been here, and I expect it to continue that way," Cutler said.
