07/22/2010 - Etobicoke, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brent Delahoussaye fired an eight-under 62 Thursday to take the lead after the opening round of the Canadian Open.
Delahoussaye's 62 at St. George's Golf & Country Club matched the tournament's 18-hole scoring record. Leonard Thompson, Andy Bean and Greg Norman all shot 62 at Glen Abbey, while Hunter Mahan also carded a 62 at Angus Glen North.
"I am shocked. I mean I knew I was playing well, and I didn't even really know how many under I was at one point," Delahoussaye admitted. "I just kind of kept going and kept trying to make birdies. I am a little shocked that it's the tournament record and the course record."
Vance Veazey and Brock Mackenzie both shot six-under 64 and share second place. Hunter Mahan headlines a group of nine players tied for third at minus- five.
With a slightly different setup this week, players are starting on the first and ninth tees at St. George's.
Delahoussaye started his round on the ninth and reached the green in two with a three-iron and drained the eagle effort. Delahoussaye came right back with a short birdie putt on the 10th to quickly get to minus-three.
The 28-year-old birdied the 12th, but gave that stroke right back with a three-putt bogey on the 13th. After three straight pars, he birdied the 17th to head to the front nine at minus-four.
Delahoussaye got within one of the lead with a birdie on the second. He poured in three consecutive birdies from the fifth to jump into the lead.
"The key was hitting fairways. I figured the rough was going to be thick, after my practice round," Delahoussaye stated. "I just figured if I could keep it in the fairway I could still get it around the greens. I hit a lot of fairways today and the putter got hot. I made a bunch of putts, to be honest."
Delahoussaye hasn't had a lot of success this year on the PGA Tour, as he has made just three cuts in nine tries and his best finish was a share of 53rd at the Byron Nelson Championship. That stands as his best career PGA Tour finish.
"I've played bad all year, to be honest," Delahoussaye said. "I've been hitting it well, but I was just getting in my own way."
Veazey also started on the ninth and he got his round going right there with a birdie. He rolled in a 15-foot birdie effort on the 11th and followed with another birdie on the 12th.
The 45-year-old, who has won four Nationwide Tour events, parred the final six holes of his opening side.
Veazey sank an eight-foot birdie effort at the first and followed with a 15- footer at the second. He tripped to a bogey at the third, but erased that mistake with a 20-foot birdie effort at the sixth.
Veazey closed with a birdie on the eighth to get in at minus-six.
"The putter was the key ingredient to the score. You have to hit good shots into the greens because they have slope," Veazey said. "I had a lot of good looks today with the putter. So I think that's the key to playing well here is obviously putting it in the fairway, and then you have got to make putts."
Mackenzie was even-par through six holes with a pair of birdies and bogeys. He birdied the eighth and followed with an eagle on No. 9. Mackenzie birdied 10 and 11 to get to five-under. His final birdie was on the 16th.
Mahan was joined in fourth at five-under 65 by Rich Barcelo, Dean Wilson, Daniel Chopra, Charley Hoffman, Jimmy Walker, Spencer Levin, Steve Wheatcroft and Brian Stuard.
NOTES: Veazey's 64 matched his career-low round on the PGA Tour...Defending champion Nathan Green is tied for 37th after opening with a two-under 68...World No. 8 Paul Casey, the highest ranked player in the field, also carded a 68...Robert Garrigus and Brian Davis withdrew after their rounds.

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.
We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.
Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.
Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.
Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.
NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.
The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
