Golf Betting Lines
06/25/2009 - Devens, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kimberly Kim, the 2006 U.S. Women's Amateur Champion, knocked off Sara-Maude Juneau, 2 & 1, Thursday to win her third- round match at the U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links Championship.
Kim advanced to Friday's quarterfinal and it took some work.
Juneau was 2-up through 12, but Kim won 13 with a birdie, then took the 14th with a conceded eagle to square the match.
"I felt like, gee, I'm so tired. Thank you, Lord," Kim said of the concession.
Kim captured the 16th with a par and hit her approach to two feet at 17. She made a birdie and won the match.
Kim will meet Sun Gyoung Park in the quarterfinals. Park destroyed Kristen Schelling to the tune of 5 & 4 on Thursday.
Stroke-play medalist Stephanie Kono's run ended in the third round. Kono lost to Jisoo Park, 1-down.
Park rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt at 15 to knot her match with Kono. Park claimed the 16th with a par and the pair halved the 17th. Kono needed a birdie at the last to force extra holes. Her putt narrowly missed and Park two-putted for the win.
Park, who is playing in her first USGA championship, drew Cydney Clanton on Friday morning. Clanton edged out Lizette Salas, 1-up, in Thursday's third round.
Jennifer Song, last year's runner-up, dispatched Brittany Altomare, 1-up, to set up a quarterfinal match with Casie Cathrea, who earned a 2 & 1 victory over Alice Kim.
The final quarterfinal match on Friday will see Sydnee Michaels versus Joanna Coe.

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.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
