Drysdale started on the back nine and birdied his first hole. He carded his second birdie on the par-five 13th, then parred the final five holes of his opening nine.
The 31-year-old Scotsman drained a birdie effort on the first and got to four- under with a birdie at the par-five third. Drysdale closed with back-to-back birdies from the eighth to end alongside Edfors.
Eight-time Order of Merit winner Colin Montgomerie is part of a logjam in 81st at one-over-par 72.
Pawleys Island, SC (PRWEB) July 14, 2006 -- Pawleys Plantation in Pawleys Island, S.C., has been judged one of the best meeting facilities in the Southern U.S., Caribbean and Yucatan Peninsula for 2006 by readers of Meetings South magazine. The prestigious “Best of the South” awards for 2006 will be published in the magazine’s September issue.
“It’s very exciting for Pawleys Plantation to receive this award,” said Jann Walker, marketing director for Pawleys Plantation. “Our staff works hard to make the meeting experience at Pawleys Plantation an exceptional one and it’s gratifying to receive recognition for their efforts.”
Pawleys Plantation was named one of the “Stars of the South” by Meetings South readers in 2003. It is also rated as a four star facility in Golf Digest’s Places To Play. Four stars means that the resort’s golf course is “Outstanding -- plan your next vacation around it.”
Pawleys Plantation has been recognized as one of South Carolina’s best sites for corporate retreats, private vacations and golf getaways. The nation’s top golf publication, Golf Digest applauded Pawleys Plantation’s “spacious and private villa accommodations ... along with fine clubhouse dining and after-round relaxation in the Palmetto Pub.” While Convention South wrote about meetings on the rise at Pawleys Plantation Golf and Country Club, T&L Golf Magazine rated Pawleys Plantation among the top three places to stay for golf groups.

Today, over 12,000 events have been entered into the massive new calendar, which is fully searchable by date or event. And every day hundreds more events are logged in for visitors to view.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.

Now, it's okay to call the league hypocritical when it releases injury reports, which players have told me only helps bettors. And it's okay to mutter something obscene when the league pretends gambling doesn't help drive TV ratings and fan interest and put money in owners' pockets. But when it supports other forms of gaming? Big Deal. The Bears should put an orange "C" on every deck of cards dealt at Harrah's in Joliet; the Eagles should slap their logo on roulette wheels at the Borgata in Atlantic City; the Dolphins should hold training camp at the El San Juan in Puerto Rico.
Seriously.
The NFL's problem, when it comes to the gambling world, isn't hypocrisy, it's worse: The bosses lack vision. That's why the league is picking unwinnable fights in Delaware and taking pot shots from critics after making smart sponsorship deals. Roger Goodell and his gang are acting and thinking locally rather than globally, which is rare for them, especially compared to their professional (and amateur) counterparts.
The NBA held its All Star game in Las Vegas and David Stern's kingdom didn't crumble (although the town did bring plenty of players to their knees.) I'd say it's 6 to 5 and pick 'em that Lebron will make a road swing through Sin City before his career is over.
Even the NCAA College Football Betting is more progressive on this issue than the NFL. Several years ago Rachel Newman Baker, college sports' gambling czar, opened a dialogue with Vegas bookmakers to learn about how they do business. She's visited Nevada sports books, studied their operations and listened to how they regulate action. Now she knows she can expect a call from bookmakers, who lose money when sports are fixed, if they think something sketchy is going on in NCAA games. She's not in favor of sports betting, but, as she once told me, "I know it's not going away, either."
The NFL can't seem to accept that. And until it can find peace with the idea, it'll get flack, even when it's right.
