Jimenez shoots 61 for European Masters lead

Golf Betting Lines

09/03/2010 - Crans Montana, Switzerland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Five days after locking down his Ryder Cup spot, Miguel Angel Jimenez came close to locking down a piece of golf history.

Jimenez flirted with a 59 Friday during the second round of the European Masters, but made par on his final three holes for a 10-under 61 instead.

Still, the ponytailed Spaniard did enough to take a three-shot on the Crans- sur-Sierre course, finishing with a 14-under 128 that was one shot off the tournament's 36-hole scoring record.

The 46-year-old Jimenez is chasing his third victory of the season after picking up earlier wins in Dubai and France. He made his fourth European Ryder Cup team on points, securing the spot on Sunday.

"I was thinking 59 a little bit and I tried, but it was still a great round," said Jimenez. "All the clubs were working properly and that's what you need."

Italians Edoardo Molinari (65) and Matteo Manassero (67) shared second place at 11-under 131.

Molinari also made the Ryder Cup team after winning the Johnnie Walker Championship on Sunday. Manassero, 17, was the first-round leader.

Finland's Mikko Ilonen (67) was fourth at 10-under 132, England's Graeme (68) Storm stood fifth at 133 and South Africa's Charl Schwartzel (66) was sixth at 134.

Super Bowl XLIII Betting - Super Bowl 2009

Super Bowl 2009, the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.

MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.

Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.

Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.

After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.

Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.

Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.

If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.

Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.
