Golf Betting Lines

12/09/2011 - Dubai, United Arab Emirates (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alvaro Quiros eagled the par- five 18th on Friday en route to an eight-under 64 and a four-stroke lead after two rounds of the Dubai World Championship.

Quiros not only matched the course record at Jumeirah Golf Estates, but he also set a new 36-hole scoring record. He finished two rounds at 12-under-par 132, which bettered the old 36-record by three strokes.

Lee Westwood set the old mark of 135 in 2009. Ross Fisher and Ian Poulter matched Westwood's record last year.

First-round leader Peter Hanson birdied the 18th for an even-par 72. He is alone in second place at minus-eight.

Robert Rock shot three-under 69 to join Rory McIlroy in a share of third place at seven-under-par 137. McIlroy bogeyed the last two holes for a one-under 71.

Paul Casey (66) and Paul Lawrie (73) are tied for fifth at minus-six.

World No. 1 Luke Donald posted a four-under 68 to move into a share of 12th at four-under-par 140.

Donald has a big lead over McIlroy in the Order of Merit. However, if McIlroy wins this event and Donald finishes ninth or worse, McIlory would win the Order of Merit. If Donald wins the money title, he would be the first player to top both the PGA Tour and European Tour money lists in the same season.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.

The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.

The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.

Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
