Golf Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - Winnipeg, MB (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Michelle Wie posted a three-under 69 Friday to maintain her three-stroke lead after two rounds of the Canadian Women's Open.

Wie completed 36 holes at 10-under-par 134. She is looking to pick up her second LPGA Tour title to go with her victory at the 2009 Lorena Ochoa Invitational.

Jiyai Shin carded a five-under 67 to move into second place at minus-seven.

Suzann Pettersen, the defending champion, shot three-under 69 for the second straight day. She is tied for third with Morgan Pressel, who fired a six- under 66 at St. Charles Country Club.

Na Yeon Choi and Jee Young Lee both carded 67s on Friday and share fifth place at minus-five.

Wie started on the back nine and promptly dropped a shot on the par-three 11th, a hole which she aced a day earlier.

"I think they were very disappointed on 11 today when I made a bogey," joked Wie about the fans.

She bounced back with her second birdie in two days on the par-five 13th and moved to minus-eight with a birdie at 15. Wie then ran off seven consecutive pars around the turn.

Like she did Thursday, Wie posted birdies on five and six to climb to 10- under. She parred her final three holes to finish three clear.

"I felt good out there today, a couple of bad putts," Wie stated. "I had a lot of putts coming back. I just need to get my speed a little bit more down. But I'm just going out there and grinding and just trying my hardest every day."

This is the fourth time Wie has owned the 36-hole lead on the LPGA Tour. However, she has not been able to hold any of those leads, but has finished in the top three the previous three times she was in this position.

"It is frustrating when you don't win, but there's nothing you can do about it," Wie stated. "All you can do is look forward, just try and do your best every step of the way. That's what I'm trying to do, just trying to go out there and try my hardest."

Shin, who played alongside Wie the first two rounds, posted two birdies and two bogeys in a four-hole span from the 11th. She posted five more birdies on the front nine, including three in a row from the fourth, to move into second.

"Fortunately we played in the morning because the last couple holes was very windy," stated Shin, currently No. 4 in the world. "The last couple [of holes] played a little bit harder."

NOTES: Pettersen, the world No. 3, won this title last year at Priddis Greens Golf & Country Club...World No. 1 Ai Miyazato carded a two-under 70 Friday to climb into a share of 17th at even-par 144...The cut line fell at four-over- par 148 with 73 players moving on to the weekend...World No.5 Yani Tseng, Alexis Thompson, Anna Nordqvist, Helen Alfredsson and two-time champion Brandie Burton were among those that missed the cut.
