Quinney lost a playoff last week at the Scholarship American Showdown at Somerby, but has a plan for Sunday.
Flanagan made his move up the leaderboard with a tournament-record-tying seven consecutive birdies from the second. He birdied the par-three 15th to get into first place.
Jaco Van Zyl (63), Justin Bolli (66) and Ricky Barnes (69) are knotted in sixth place at 18-under-par 198.
Hoylake, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiger Woods successfully defended his British Open Championship title on Sunday with a two-shot victory at Royal Liverpool. The No. 1 player in the world was threatened by Chris DiMarco on the back nine, but three consecutive birdies from the 14th allowed Woods to shoot a final-round, five-under 67. Woods finished the event at 18-under-par 270.
Woods became the first player since Tom Watson in 1982-83 to successfully defend his title. He ran his record to 11-0 in major championships when he held at least a share of the third-round lead.
DiMarco, who lost to Woods in a playoff at the 2005 Masters, shot a four-under 68 to take second place at 16-under-par 272. Ernie Els, the 2002 British Open champion, posted a one-under 71 and finished alone in third place at 13-under- par 275.
Hoylake, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Another major, another chance to contend and another blown opportunity. That sums up Sergio Garcia's week at Royal Liverpool. On Sunday, he played in the final pairing with eventual winner Tiger Woods and began the final round one shot off the pace. The Spaniard bogeyed the second and third holes, then bogeyed eight and nine and fell out of the tournament.
Garcia birdied 12, bogeyed 14, birdied 15 and eagled 16 to finish in a tie for fifth place.
"Nothing seemed to go my way," said Garcia. "I'm not disappointed. I felt like I played the way I wanted. I hit three or four bad ones. I felt calm today. I probably felt the best I've ever felt at a major putting."
Garcia can take solace in the fact that his next chance at a major trophy comes at a familiar location. Next month's PGA Championship will be staged at Medinah, where Garcia held his coming out party.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.

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.''
