Jimenez shoots 61 for European Masters lead

Golf Betting Lines

09/03/2010 - Crans Montana, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Five days after locking down his Ryder Cup spot, Miguel Angel Jimenez came close to locking down a piece of golf history.

Jimenez flirted with a 59 Friday during the second round of the European Masters, but made par on his final three holes for a 10-under 61 instead.

Still, the ponytailed Spaniard did enough to take a three-shot on the Crans- sur-Sierre course, finishing with a 14-under 128 that was one shot off the tournament's 36-hole scoring record.

The 46-year-old Jimenez is chasing his third victory of the season after picking up earlier wins in Dubai and France. He made his fourth European Ryder Cup team on points, securing the spot on Sunday.

"I was thinking 59 a little bit and I tried, but it was still a great round," said Jimenez. "All the clubs were working properly and that's what you need."

Italians Edoardo Molinari (65) and Matteo Manassero (67) shared second place at 11-under 131.

Molinari also made the Ryder Cup team after winning the Johnnie Walker Championship on Sunday. Manassero, 17, was the first-round leader.

Finland's Mikko Ilonen (67) was fourth at 10-under 132, England's Graeme (68) Storm stood fifth at 133 and South Africa's Charl Schwartzel (66) was sixth at 134.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
