Golf Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - Columbus, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jonathan Kaye fired a course-record, eight- under 63 Thursday to grab a two-stroke lead after the first round of the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational.

Kaye, a two-time winner on the PGA Tour, broke the course record by two strokes on the Scarlet Course at Ohio State University Golf Club.

Scott Brown posted a 65 and is alone in second. D.J. Brigman, Nick Flanagan, Tjaart van der Walt and William McGirt share third place at five-under 66.

Kaye tripped out of the gate with a bogey on the second. He erased that mistake with a birdie on the fourth and came right back with another birdie at the par-three fifth.

The 39-year-old birdied the next par-three, No. 8. Kaye followed that with a hole-out eagle on the par-four ninth, which moved him to minus-four.

"I had a nice number and just tried to smooth an eight-iron 164 yards," Kaye said of his eagle. "The ball had eyes on it when it hit on the green. It went dead left, right in the cup."

Around the turn, Kaye picked up a birdie on the par-five 12th. He dropped in back-to-back birdie efforts from the 15th to move one ahead of Brown.

Kaye closed with a birdie at the last to push his lead to two strokes.

Brown was in the second group out in the morning wave off the first tee. He had a similar start to Kaye as he also bogeyed No. 2. Brown came back with birdies on three and five.

A birdie on the eighth helped Brown make the turn at minus-two. He converted a birdie chance on the 10th, then made eagle on the par-five 12th.

Brown birdied the 15th, then parred the final three holes to head to the clubhouse with the early lead.

"This is a very good golf course," Brown stated. "The greens are soft and it gives you a chance to be a little more aggressive, but you have to take some chances too."

Daniel Summerhays, who became the first amateur to win on the Nationwide Tour when he captured the 2008 crown, opened with a four-under 67. He was joined in seventh place by David McKenzie, Camilo Benedetti, Joe Affrunti, Michael Putnam and Kyle Stanley.

NOTES: Tommy Gainey, who earned his second win of the season last week and took over the top spot on the tour's money list, opened with a one-over 72, which left him tied for 77th...Benedetti aced the par-three eighth...There are 10 amateurs in the field this week with Russell Henley posting the best score, a three-under 68.
