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.

The 2009 AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year odds have been released and Denver Broncos' running back Knowshon Moreno has been made the opening favorite.
Moreno was selected in the first round of April's NFL draft and is expected to carry the rushing load for the Broncos this season. And with Jay Cutler now in Chicago, Moreno might be expected to be Denver's entire offense.
Betting Lines from sports betting lines have made Moreno a 5/2 favorite to win this year's Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Fellow running back Chris “Beanie” Wells (Arizona Cardinals) is right behind Moreno at 7/2, while Donald Brown (Indianapolis Colts) and receiver Michael Crabtree (San Francisco 49ers) are 5/1 to win. Quarterbacks Mark Sanchez (New York Jets) and Matthew Stafford (Detroit Lions) are 7/1 and 8/1, respectively.
A couple of players who present some value are Josh Freeman, Shonn Green and Darrius Heyward-Bey.
Freeman needs to beat out Byron Leftwich to become the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but if he does, he has a lot or raw talent and could use the weapons around him (i.e. Kellen Winslow Jr. and Antonio Bryant) to be very successful in his first season.
Green enters a crowded backfield in New York, but considering both Thomas Jones and Leon Washington are unhappy about their contract situations and might holdout, the former Iowa product could become the Jets' primary back.
Everyone was shocked when Al Davis took Heyward-Bey with the eighth overall pick in April's draft, but the kid has a tremendous amount of talent and if quarterback JaMarcus Russell takes the next step this year, the former Maryland product could blossom. Plus, Heyward-Bey will be looking to prove the people wrong who said Oakland should have taken Michael Crabtree with the No. 8 pick.
And if you're looking for a deep sleeper, check out Pat White at 30/1. He enters the Miami Dolphins vaunted “Wild Cat” offense and could be a big time playmaker.

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.
Just because it is the All-Star break doesn’t mean that you can’t bet on NBA hoops this weekend. Be sure to log onto MySportsbook.com to bet on who you think will cut down the nets this July.
