Golf Betting Lines

07/20/2010 - Wentworth, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - European Ryder Cup captain Colin Montgomerie has selected Thomas Bjorn, Darren Clarke and Paul McGinley as his vice captains for this year's team.

The 2010 Ryder Cup will be staged October 1-3 at the Celtic Manor Resort in Wales.

Bjorn, Clarke and McGinley have a combined 10 Ryder Cup appearances among them.

"The Ryder Cup is about passion, commitment and will to win, and all three men I have named today as my vice captains possess these qualities in abundance," Montgomerie said Tuesday.

"Thomas Bjorn, Darren Clarke and Paul McGinley are vastly experienced players who have the respect and admiration of everyone in golf. They have all been part of successful European Ryder Cup teams in the past and know the players who will be part of my team at Celtic Manor in October as well as anyone.

"I am delighted to have them by my side as we head to Wales and I know they will be of invaluable assistance to me and everyone associated with the team as we aim to regain the Ryder Cup."

Bjorn has twice been a European Ryder Cup team member, playing on the winning squad in both 1997 and 2002. He was the first player from Denmark to play on a Ryder Cup team and previously served as an assistant to Bernhard Langer at the 2004 Ryder Cup.

Clarke has played in the Ryder Cup five times and was part of winning teams in 1997, 2002, 2004 and 2006. He has a record of 10-7-3 in his 20 Ryder Cup matches.

McGinley holed the winning putt for the European team at the Belfry in 2002 and was also part of winning squads in both 2004 and 2006.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
