Golf Betting Lines

07/16/2010 - Greensboro, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Lion Kim and David McDaniel will meet in the final of the U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship after both players squeezed out a pair of 1-up victories on Friday.

Indeed, all six matches contested Friday on the Champions Course at Bryan Park were decided by 1-up scores. And half of them went extra holes.

In the semifinals, Kim rallied for a 1-up victory over Kevin Phelan after falling 2-down through 12 holes. A 21-year-old from Ann Arbor, Mich., Kim won the 13th with a par and then squared the match with an eagle at the par-five 15th.

He moved 1-up with a par at the 16th, then halved the last two holes with Phelan as both players closed with back-to-back birdies.

In the other semifinal, McDaniel rallied from a 3-down deficit after six holes against Josh Anderson. The 25-year-old from Tucson, Ariz., didn't take his first lead until a par at the 14th moved him 1-up.

McDaniel held on to that advantage over the last four holes to set up a meeting with Kim in Saturday's 36-hole match play final.

They will begin their first 18 holes at 7 a.m. (et).

All of the morning quarterfinal matches also ended in 1-up victories, with three of the four going extra holes.

Kim led for 16 of the 18 holes in his match against Chris Williams. After Williams squared the match with a par at the 16th, Kim took the lead for good with a par at the 17th. He earned a 1-up win after both players parred the 18th.

McDaniel trailed for much of the back nine against Harris English, but birdied the 17th to square the match. McDaniel won with a par on their 19th hole.

Phelan was never ahead in his match against Wesley Graham until he won the 21st hole for a 1-up victory. Phelan parred the 18th to square the match and send it to extra holes.

Anderson was behind for 10 of the first 17 holes against Darren Wallace. He squared the match with a birdie at the 18th, then earned his 1-up win with a par on the first extra hole.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.

Bet on NFL Football

Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.

Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.

Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.

Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.

All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.

A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
