Golf Betting Lines
02/22/2012 - Ponte Vedra Beach, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The PGA Tour and FedEx announced on Wednesday a five-year extension of the company's sponsorship of the FedExCup.
The FedExCup is a year-long competition that began in 2007. This new deal will keep FedEx as the sponsor from 2013-2017 and starting next year, the four- tournament PGA Tour Playoffs will be known as the FedExCup Playoffs.
"Since its inception in 2007, the FedExCup has transformed the competitive landscape on the PGA Tour and significantly benefited all of our stakeholders," said PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem. "It makes every FedExCup event more meaningful, adding substantial value to our tournaments, title sponsors and television partners. Most importantly, the FedExCup offers our fans more ways to engage in our sport and get excited about our players week in and week out."
The prize pool remains unchanged with $35 million at stake based on a player's finish on the FedExCup points list. The winner will pocket $10 million.
Tiger Woods is a two-time FedExCup champion, while Vijay Singh, Jim Furyk and Bill Haas have also walked off with the title.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
