Golf Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Brunei (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boonchu Ruangkit defeated Frankie Minoza in a playoff Sunday to claim the Aberdeen Brunei Senior Masters.

Ruangkit and Minoza closed with five-under 66s to finish at 14-under-par 199.

Ruangkit won with a par on the second extra hole after both players parred the first playoff hole.

"I was very nervous for the playoff, and it didn't help that the wind started to blow a little," said Ruangkit, who lost a playoff last year at the Brunei Open on the Asian Tour. "But I managed to control my nerves, and I'm just so happy to have won, although I feel a little sorry for Frankie, because he played very well today. I didn't think I could beat him, to be honest."

Chris Williams carded a three-under 68 to end alone in third at 11-under-par 202. Roger Chapman was two strokes back at minus-nine after a final-round 66.

Ruangkit flew out of the gate with a birdie on the first and an eagle on the second to move two clear of Minoza, who birdied the second, then fell three back with a bogey on the third.

Both players birdied the par-four fifth, then Minoza got back within one of the lead with birdies on eight and nine. Ruangkit briefly moved two ahead with a birdie on the 11th.

Minoza forged a tie at 14-under with birdies on 12 and 13. He dropped a shot on 14, then Ruangkit looked as though he sealed the win with a birdie on the 17th.

However, Ruangkit stumbled to a bogey on the par-four 18th, while Minoza converted a birdie try to force the extra session.

Ruangkit eventually pulled out the victory, his first on the European Senior Tour.

Sam Torrance had a 65 on Sunday and shared fifth place with Jerry Bruner, who shot a final-round 70. The pair finished at seven-under 206.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

Saints +6 @ Colts -6
