Golf Betting Lines

07/11/2010 - Oakmont, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Paula Creamer poured in back-to-back birdies from the 14th hole in Sunday's final round and coasted from there to win the U.S. Women's Open.

Creamer earned her ninth LPGA Tour title and first major championship crown by closing with a two-under 69.

She was the lone player in red figures at Oakmont Country Club as she finished at three-under-par 281.

The 23-year-old has battled through a thumb injury, which required surgery earlier this year. Creamer wasn't sure she'd ever golf again after that, but this was her fourth start and her first win since.

The victory was Creamer's first since she claimed the 2008 Samsung World Championship.

Na Yeon Choi carded the second-best round of the week with a five-under 66 to finish at plus-one. Suzann Pettersen posted a 69 to join Choi in second place.

In Kyung Kim (68) took fourth place at two-over-par 286.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
