Third Round Birdie Claim Rout With Vehicles

"We're very good friends," said Clarke. "I would certainly like to be four or five shots ahead of him as I could have been as opposed to tied for the lead, but we'll have some fun."

 

Bjorn recovered with a birdie at nine, a hole he has birdied each of the first three rounds. He parred the first three holes on the second nine, then birdied No. 13.

 

Now Bjorn has a shot to win at the same venue as his first win on the European Tour.

 

Ernie Els, a two-time winner of this tournament, shot a four-under 67 on Saturday. He is tied for 10th place with Jamie Donaldson (71), Mark Foster (68) and Charl Schwartzel (72). The group is knotted at seven-under-par 206.

 

Roberts began the third round in a tie for 15th place after the second round -- suspended due to inclement weather on Friday -- was completed in the morning.

 

No one believed Roberts' early-season success was a fluke. Beginning part-time on the Champions Tour last summer, Roberts won the JELD-WEN Tradition in a playoff over Dana Quigley for his first Seniors major.

 

But since winning the MasterCard Championship, Turtle Bay Championship and ACE Group Classic to begin 2006, the 51-year-old Roberts has since collected eight top-10 finishes without another win.

 

Saturday, Roberts began making a move with back-to-back birdies to begin his third round. He added birdies at the fifth and seventh holes to make the turn at 10-under, then collected another birdie at the 10th.

 

Don Pooley -- one of eight players who held a share of the second-round lead -- now heads a group of four players who are tied for fifth place. Pooley shot a two-under 70 in the third round and is tied with Bobby Wadkins (65), Des Smyth (68) and Jim Thorpe (69) at minus-10.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup

September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com.  The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans. 

Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to  name a  few.  Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR.  They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.

The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer.  Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
