Spieth shares lead at Junior Amateur
Golf Betting Lines
07/19/2010 -
Ada, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion Jordan Spieth shot a five-under
67 on Monday to share the first-round lead at the U.S. Junior Amateur
Championship.
Stephen Behr and Davis Womble also posted rounds of 67, while Wyndham Clark,
Curtis Thompson, Bobby Wyatt and Shugo Imahira had 68s.
Spieth, 16, is attempting to become the second player in history to win
multiple Junior Amateur championships after Tiger Woods, who won three in a
row from 1991-93.
First, he will need to make it through another round of stroke play Tuesday,
then six rounds of match play on the Egypt Valley course.
If Spieth remains on top after 36 holes of stroke play, he will become only
the third player in the championship's history to earn medalist honors more
than once.
Willie Wood did it in 1977-78 and Woods in 1991-92.
Spieth, who played without a bogey for his 67 on Monday, won medalist honors
last year with a six-under 137 at Trump National.
He has played two events on the PGA Tour this year, tying for 16th place at
the Byron Nelson Championship and missing the cut at the St. Jude Classic.
Spieth remained in contention late into the final round at the Byron Nelson,
where he became the sixth-youngest player to make the cut in a PGA Tour
event.
