Bjorn takes 3-shot lead in Portugal

Golf Betting Lines

06/12/2010 - Estoril, Portugal (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Denmark's Thomas Bjorn fired his second consecutive seven-under 65 to take sole possession of the lead Saturday after the third round of the Portugal Open.

Chasing his first win in four years, Bjorn finished 54 holes on the Penha Longa course with a 19-under 197 to take a three-shot lead over hard-charging Richard Green of Australia.

Bjorn is winless since collecting his ninth European Tour title at the 2006 Irish Open.

Green, a two-time winner, collected eight birdies Saturday for a bogey-free 64 that moved him from a tie for 10th place into solo second at 16-under 200.

Ireland's Damien McGrane (68) was two shots further back at 14-under 202, while Englishmen Robert Rock (68) and Robert Coles (69) shared fourth place with Argentina's Daniel Vancsik (68) at 203.

Bjorn is in desperate need of another good finish. The 39-year-old Dane has missed nine cuts in 15 starts on the European Tour this season, including a streak of six consecutive missed cuts that was snapped with a tie for ninth place in Wales last week.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds

Will he or won't he?  Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.

Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.

"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."

Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.

Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.

But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.

Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback.  It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
