Green Leads Golf From Wednesday

Golf Betting Lines

Woods, who is from Phoenix, won the first two holes with pars and was at least 2-up the rest of the way. She won the fourth with a par and the sixth with a birdie to go 4-up.

 

Defending champion Emily Tubert was a 4 & 2 winner over Mandi Morrow. Tubert will face Harin Lee in round two on Thursday. Last year's runner-up Lisa McCloskey fell 2 & 1 to Catherine Dolan.

 

Stephanie Kono and Tiffany Lua, who were teammates on the 2010 U.S. Curtis Cup team, both advanced on Wednesday. Lua will battle Christine Wolf, who qualified for the 2011 U.S. Women's Open.

 

The championship continues Thursday on the Bandon Trails course at Bandon Dunes with the second and third rounds. The Old Macdonald course will have the quarters and semis on Friday, as well as the 36-hole final on Saturday.

 

Traditionally a five-round tournament where pros tee it up with amateurs, the Humana Challenge trimmed the championship back to four rounds. Professionals will team with different amateur partners over the first three rounds. The top 70 professionals make the 54-hole cut and the winner will get the newly- created Bob Hope Trophy.

 

The number of courses in the rotation was trimmed as well. LaQuinta Country Club, PGA West Nicklaus Private Course and PGA West Palmer Private will remain part of the tournament, but SilverRock Resort was dropped.

 

PGA Tour rookie Jhonattan Vegas won this year's Bob Hope tournament in a playoff over Gary Woodland and Bill Haas.

 

World No. 4 Martin Kaymer carded a respectable even-par 71, but the man he beat in a playoff last year for the PGA Championship fared slightly worse on Thursday.

 

They're all chasing the co-leaders, who both played in the morning wave.
