Golf Betting Lines

07/13/2010 - Greensboro, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John-Tyler Griffin of Georgia Tech holds a one-shot lead after playing two rounds of the U.S. Amateur Public Links.

Griffin, who is from Wilson, North Carolina, about two hours west of Greensboro, fired a four-under-par 67 on the Bryan Park Golf & Conference Center. He stands at nine-under 133 through 36 holes.

Play was suspended at 6:18 p.m. due to a dangerous situation because of lightning in the area, with 18 players yet to finish their second rounds. The second round of stroke play will resume at 7 a.m. on Wednesday. The first round of match play is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m.

Derek Ernst, who held a one-stroke lead after the first round of stroke play, is one shot back after completing his second round. Also in the clubhouse at minus-eight are Patrick Reed and Bhavik Patel. Reed was a semifinalist at the 2008 U.S. Amateur while Patel was a semifinalist last year at the same event.

Andrew Yun is also through two rounds and is seven-under-par. George Bryan is finished at minus-six.

Last year's champion Brad Benjamin is not competing.

Following Wednesday's second round of stroke play, the field will be cut to the top 64 players, who will then face off in match play. Wednesday will be the first round of match play followed by the second and third rounds on Thursday, the quarterfinals and semifinals on Friday and the 36-hole final on Saturday.
