Golf Betting Lines
09/09/2010 - Sandy, UT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Chris Kirk had a hole-in-one Thursday en route to a six-under 65 and the first-round lead at the Utah Championship.
Kirk, who tops the Nationwide Tour money list, aced the par-three second, his 11th hole in the opening round at Willow Creek Country Club.
Kirk, Tommy Gainey and Martin Piller all have won twice this season and one more win would earn them an automatic promotion to the PGA Tour. However, that promotion would not start until the Fall Series events begin September 30th.
Fabian Gomez, who is 11th on the tour's money list, posted a five-under 66 and was joined in second place by Michael Putnam and Cliff Kresge.
Seven more players, including Chris Nallen and Paul Claxton, are one stroke back at minus-four.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
