07/16/2010 - Greensboro, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lion Kim and David McDaniel will meet in the final of the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship after both players squeezed out a pair of 1-up victories on Friday.
Indeed, all six matches contested Friday on the Champions Course at Bryan Park were decided by 1-up scores. And half of them went extra holes.
In the semifinals, Kim rallied for a 1-up victory over Kevin Phelan after falling 2-down through 12 holes. A 21-year-old from Ann Arbor, Mich., Kim won the 13th with a par and then squared the match with an eagle at the par-five 15th.
He moved 1-up with a par at the 16th, then halved the last two holes with Phelan as both players closed with back-to-back birdies.
In the other semifinal, McDaniel rallied from a 3-down deficit after six holes against Josh Anderson. The 25-year-old from Tucson, Ariz., didn't take his first lead until a par at the 14th moved him 1-up.
McDaniel held on to that advantage over the last four holes to set up a meeting with Kim in Saturday's 36-hole match play final.
They will begin their first 18 holes at 7 a.m. (et).
All of the morning quarterfinal matches also ended in 1-up victories, with three of the four going extra holes.
Kim led for 16 of the 18 holes in his match against Chris Williams. After Williams squared the match with a par at the 16th, Kim took the lead for good with a par at the 17th. He earned a 1-up win after both players parred the 18th.
McDaniel trailed for much of the back nine against Harris English, but birdied the 17th to square the match. McDaniel won with a par on their 19th hole.
Phelan was never ahead in his match against Wesley Graham until he won the 21st hole for a 1-up victory. Phelan parred the 18th to square the match and send it to extra holes.
Anderson was behind for 10 of the first 17 holes against Darren Wallace. He squared the match with a birdie at the 18th, then earned his 1-up win with a par on the first extra hole.

MySportsbook.com: NBA Championship Odds
With the playoffs about two months away, the top two teams in the Western Conference are the clear cut leaders to win the NBA Championship. The Dallas Mavericks have the best record in the NBA (44-9) and have been absolutely scorching since the second week of the season. What makes the Mavs’ record more impressive is the fact that they dropped their first four games of the season. Currently they have won 17 out of their last 18 and are MySportsbook.com’s favorite (2-1) to win it all. Right behind the Mavs are the Pacific leading Phoenix Suns (39-13). Last season, the Suns lost in the Conference Finals to non-other then the Mavericks four games to two. Of course the Suns were without center Amare Stoudemire who has is averaging 19.9 PPG and 9.5 RPG since coming back from his knee injury. Unlike the Mavs, the Suns have struggled a bit lately having lost their last three and four out of their last seven. Of course the main reason for their three straight loses is due to the absence of two time MVP Steve Nash, who is out with a shoulder injury. Heads-up, the Mavs have beaten the Suns in both of their meetings this season.
In the Eastern Conference, the Pistons (32-19) are the favorites to win it all at 6-1. The addition of Chris Webber seems to have been a good move for the Pistons. Since coming over from the 76ers, Webber has averaged 13.1 PPG and 7.3 RPG and the Pistons are 11-4. Even though the defending champion Heat are currently on the playoff making cusp, they are the Eastern Conference team that is getting the most action to win it all (9-1). The fact that Shaquille O’Neal is back in the starting lineup after missing 39 games probably has something to do with this. No doubt, Shaq makes a difference when in the lineup as their winning six out of their last seven would indicate.
