Golf Betting Lines
07/25/2010 -
Stockholm, Sweden (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sweden's Richard S. Johnson made a long
birdie putt at the 18th hole Sunday to win the Scandinavian Masters by one
shot.
Johnson closed with a one-under 71 and finished at 11-under 277, beating the
clubhouse number Argentina's Rafa Echenique had set minutes earlier.
The win was cheered loudly by the Swedish crowd, which supported Johnson all
week.
Echenique watched Johnson's winning putt in a nearby television camera, having
finished two groups earlier at 10-under 278. Still seeking his first win, he
closed with a 69 in the final round.
Scottish Open winner Edoardo Molinari (69) finished third at nine-under 69.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
