Mickelson, Casey both out of Accenture

Golf Betting Lines

02/17/2012 - Marana, AZ (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The field for next week's WGC-Accenture Match Play Championship has been finalized and includes the top four players in the world, but not Phil Mickelson or Paul Casey.

Mickelson will not be playing because of a scheduled family vacation, while Casey is not in the field as he recovers from a shoulder injury. Casey was the runner-up in 2009 and '10.

Ernie Els and George Coetzee replaced Mickelson and Casey.

World No. 1 Luke Donald returns to defend his title, and will be challenged by Lee Westwood, Rory McIlroy and Martin Kaymer -- Nos. 2-4 in the world, respectively. Donald defeated Kaymer 3 & 2 last year to earn the victory.

Tiger Woods, a three-time champion, is also in the field of 64.

Seeding for the championship will be based on the official world golf rankings as of the Monday of championship week -- February 20 -- rather than the rankings at the time the field was finalized.

What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country. A concern for the Tar Heels might be inexperience. Of their top four scorers/ minute earners, three are freshmen and the other is a sophomore. The rest of the regular season, the Tar Heels play only one team that is currently ranked (Duke). Their remaining opponents do combine for an impressive 107-58 record though.
