Golf Betting Lines

03/14/2010 - Miami, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ernie Els fired a bogey-free, six-under 66 Sunday to beat Charl Schwartzel and win the WGC - CA Championship.

Els, who earned his second WGC title, completed the event at 18-under-par 270. He missed Phil Mickelson's tournament scoring record by a single stroke.

The win for Els was his 17th on the PGA Tour and 25th on the European Tour.

Schwartzel had a share of the lead several times during the final round, but two late bogeys cost him his first PGA Tour win. He closed with a two-under 70 at the TPC Blue Monster at Doral to take second at minus-14.

Matt Kuchar (68), Martin Kaymer (69) and Padraig Harrington (72) shared third place at 11-under-par 277.

Mickelson, the 2009 champion, closed with a four-under 68 to share 14th at eight-under-par 280.
