Oosthuizen four ahead at the turn

Golf Betting Lines

07/18/2010 - St. Andrews, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - South African Louis Oosthuizen rolled in an eagle putt on the ninth hole Sunday to take a four-stroke lead to the back nine in the final round of the British Open Championship.

Oosthuizen, who is in contention for the first time in a major championship, has played a steady round so far in the final pairing with Paul Casey.

The 27-year-old Oosthuizen parred his first seven holes to maintain his lead. However, he stumbled to a bogey on the eighth to slip to 14-under.

Oosthuizen atoned for that mistake by pouring in an eagle effort on the ninth to get to minus-16. His lead could have dipped to two, but instead was four.

Casey came up short of the second green and was unable to save par from there. The Englishman was suddenly five back.

After three straight pars, Casey got that stroke back with a two-putt birdie on No. 6. He parred seven and eight, and was within three after Oosthuizen's bogey at the eighth.

Casey two-putted for birdie on No. 9, but lost a stroke to the leader and made the turn at 12-under par.

Not only was Casey not making a move on Oosthuizen, but the final six players combined for six birdies and an eagle on the front nine.

With three-quarters of the field finished, only seven players posted rounds in the 60s, with Rickie Fowler and Alvaro Quiros both carding 67s for the low round of the day.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
