Romero In Wilkinson Beginning ON The Back

Golf Betting Lines

"The greens are so soft out there it's like throwing darts," he said.

 

After his bogey at 15 and a par at 16, Wilkinson rattled off three straight birdies to reach six-under. He missed a five-foot birdie putt at the second, but picked up his eighth birdie on a 15-foot putt at the par-three fifth.

 

The players knotted in second place at six-under-par 65 are Kevin Johnson, Deane Pappas, Danny Briggs, Chez Reavie, Jason Dufner and Josh Broadaway.

 

There are six players on the course at minus-five and three at minus-four.

 

The playoff was the par-five 18th hole. Roberts drive went well right into the rough, while Romero found the fairway off the tee. Roberts played his second 50 yards from the green.

 

Dick Mast carded the low round of the day with his three-under 67, moving him to five-under-par 275 for third place. He was one of four players to shoot in red figures in the final round.

 

Former Masters champion Craig Stadler shot an even-par 70 to take fourth place at two-under-par 278. Tim Simpson was one stroke further back at minus-one after a four-over 74 on Sunday.

 

The 51-year-old Roberts opened with back-to-back pars and led by five as Romero bogeyed the second. Roberts tripped to a bogey on No. 3 and another at the fifth.

 

Roberts bogeyed the 12th, then stumbled to a double bogey at 14 to drop to minus-eight. He still led by one, though, as Romero bogeyed 12, 13 and 14 to slide to seven-under par.

 

The struggles down the stretch for Roberts were reminiscent of the Senior Players Championship where he led by two entering Sunday and by as many as five strokes during that final round. Roberts stumbled to a two-over 74 and eventually finished two shots behind winner Bobby Wadkins.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)

Brandon Roy Favorite to Win 2007 NBA Rookie of the Year

Portland TrailBlazer’s guard, Brandon Roy, is MySportsbook.com’s overwhelming favorite to win the NBA Rookie of the Year odds.

Despite missing 20 games due to an injury earlier this season, Roy has definitely put up the best numbers of his 1st year peers. In 32 games, Roy is averaging 15.3 PPG, 4.2 boards and 3.5 assists in over 33 minutes of play per game. While most rookies breakdown as the season progresses (see Morrison), Roy is only getting stronger as his playing time and scoring average has increased each month.

With 30 or so games left in the regular season, Roy isn’t a lock for the award by any means. Other rookies are putting together some pretty impressive campaigns and a few could give Roy a run for the award with increased playing time. Heading the list is first pick, Andrea Bargnani of the Toronto Raptors. Even though he has started only two games all season, Bargnani is averaging 10.3 PPPG while shooting 35% from deep.

Randy Foye of the Minnesota Timberwolves could be set to give Roy the best competition NBA Rookie of the Year betting lines. With the benching of Mike James, Foye looks like he could be the starter in the T-Wolves backcourt for the rest of the season. So far, Foye has averaged 9 PPG and 2.4 assists in just under 21 minutes per game. With his new role of starter, Foye’s numbers will definitely increase. In his first game as the new starting guard this past Sunday, Foye had 10 points; five rebounds and 8 assists. More importantly, he logged 34 minutes of playing time; his third highest run of the season.

Adam Morrison, of the Charlotte Bobcats, was the favorite early on in the season after averaging 15+ PPG through the first month of the season. Ever since his torrid start, Morrison’s point production has declined each month. This really isn’t surprising, considering at 6’8” he only weighs 205 lbs. Obviously he will need to hit the weights big time during the off-season in order to keep from breaking down in the future.
