Golf Betting Lines

02/16/2007 - Tucson, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The field for next week's World Golf Championships - Accenture Match Play Championship was set Friday afternoon.

The top 64 players from last week's World Ranking all committed to play at The Gallery Golf Club.

It is expected that the field will remain the same, however 2006 Pebble Beach National Pro-Am winner Arron Oberholser is still recovering from a back injury suffered at the season-opening Mercedes Benz Championship. If Oberholser does withdraw, J.J. Henry (World No. 65) would be inserted into the field.

Tiger Woods, the top-player in the World Rankings, is slated to play Brett Quigley in the opening round. Woods will be the top seed in the Bobby Jones bracket.

Former U.S. Open winner Jim Furyk is the top seed in the Gary Player bracket and he will battle 2003 PGA champion Shaun Micheel on Wednesday.

World No. 3 Adam Scott heads the Sam Snead portion of the brackets. Scott will face off against fellow Australian Richard Green in round one.

Finally, Masters champion Phil Mickelson leads the Ben Hogan bracket. Mickelson is scheduled to play Welshman Bradley Dredge in Wednesday's opening round.

Geoff Ogilvy, the defending champion, is currently ranked 11th in the world. He likely will be a No. 3 seed. The remainder of the brackets will officially be announced Sunday evening.

This event will be contested at The Gallery Golf Club from February 21-25.

The first round will be played Wednesday followed by round two on Thursday, the third round Friday and then both the quarterfinals and semifinals on Saturday. The 36-hole final will be played on Sunday. There is also an 18-hole consolation match to determine third and fourth place on Sunday.
