"It did give me a bit of comfort the last couple of holes when I had a three- shot lead," Harrington admitted. "I knew I could go left all the way home and be safe. After that good par on 14, I knew I had it."

 

After his double-bogey on 11, Dredge bogeyed 13 and 17 to fall to minus-10, but a birdie at the last put him at 11-under.

 

"I was surprisingly calm," Loar said when he tied for the lead. "I started holing a couple of putts and all of a sudden, boom I was right there. I had a couple iffy little shots coming in though."

 

Wall opened with three straight birdies and turned at minus-11 thanks to birdies on seven and nine. Wall birdied 11 and 12 to get within one of the lead, but he bogeyed the next two holes to slide back down the leaderboard. He birdied 16 then bogeyed 17 to end at minus-11.

 

Cary, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tom Jenkins was declared the winner of the SAS Championship on Sunday after wet conditions forced the cancellation of the final round. "It feels good to win anytime," said Jenkins, who pocketed his largest paycheck to date, $300,000. "It was a great feeling to come back and play well this year."

 

The win was Jenkins' seventh on the Champions Tour and his first this season. His last victory came at last year's Allianz Championship.

 

Last week's winner at the Greater Hickory Classic, Andy Bean, and Jim Ahern shared sixth place at minus-five. Raymond Floyd, Gil Morgan, Scott Hoch and Brad Bryant tied for eighth at four-under-par 140.

 

The only thing keeping the PGA Tour regular from breaking tournament scoring record was a two-putt double-bogey at Empire Lakes Golf Course's 18th hole.

 

Chris Tidland fired a five-under 66 to move into a tie for second place with Jeff Quinney (71) at 13-under 271. Grant Waite was one shot further back at 272 following a 71.

 

All that changed in Houston when Na, 23, finally decided he was doing more harm than good by playing.

 

"It is nice to have another win on the resume," said Na, whose only other worldwide win came at the 2002 Volvo Masters of Asia. "I played solid the whole week. I putted well and hit it well all week."

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title. Meanwhile, rookie Denny Hamlin is 4/1 to win the championship, while veteran driver Mark Martin enters the Chase for the Cup as a 15/1 long shot to win his first NASCAR title in his 24th and final season.
