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.

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)
