Boyd among three leaders in Scotland

Golf Betting Lines

08/27/2010 - Perthshire, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Five days after losing a playoff, England's Gary Boyd shot a four-under 68 to earn a share of the second-round lead Friday at the Johnnie Walker Championship.

France's Julien Guerrier fired a 67 and Englishman David Lynn had a 68 to join Boyd at nine-under 135.

They shared a two-shot lead over three players on the 7,300-yard PGA Centenary Course at the Gleneagles Hotel.

Boyd was involved in a three-way playoff at last week's Czech Open, losing it when Sweden's Peter Hanson birdied the second extra hole.

But he has bounced back nicely with rounds of 67 and 68 and heads into the weekend in good position to make a charge for his first career win.

"Last week didn't really surprise me. I was doing so well. I started to hole a few more putts and I tried to take that into this week," said Boyd, who had two birdies and an eagle at the 16th hole -- the second time he eagled the hole in as many days.

Trailing the co-leaders by two strokes at seven-under 137 were England's Mark Foster (67), South Africa's George Coetzee (68) and Stephen Gallacher (70), who was the top Scotsman on the board.

Nine players were knotted another shot further back at six-under 138, including Italian brothers Edoardo (68) and Francesco (70) Molinari, Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez (68) and Hanson (69).

Francesco Molinari has already made the European Ryder Cup team, while his brother hopes to play his way onto captain Colin Montgomerie's side.

At the moment, Jimenez and Hanson hold the last two spots on the team, which will be finalized after Sunday's final round.

England's Simon Dyson, who is also at six-under, is trying to squeeze his way onto the team with a good showing this week.

"If I play the best 36 holes of my life I'll play in the best tournament of my life," said Dyson.

Lynn, the 36-year-old European Tour veteran, captured his only victory at the 2004 KLM Open. He is sharing the 36-hole lead with a pair of tour rookies, hoping to turn around a disappointing season.

"(I've) been staying patient all year, hoping my fortunes are going to change," said Lynn, who had seven birdies and three bogeys Friday. "A couple of good rounds ... sets me up nicely for the weekend."

Guerrier, coming off a tie for fourth place at the Czech Open, collected seven birdies and two bogeys Friday.

NOTES: Defending champion Peter Hedblom posted a 70 and was four shots off the lead...The cut line fell at one-under 143 with 66 players moving on to the weekend. Among the players who missed the cut was Robert Karlsson.
