Golf Betting Lines

09/04/2010 - Norton, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Brandt Snedeker fired a seven-under 64 Saturday to join Jason Day in the lead after 36 holes of the Deutsche Bank Championship, the second of four FedExCup series playoff events.

Day, who shared the first-round lead with Zach Johnson, shot four-under 67 in round two. Day and Snedeker completed two rounds at 12-under-par 130.

Matt Kuchar, who leads the FedExCup points race, carded a six-under 65 to move into a share of third at minus-11. He was joined there by Charley Hoffman, who shot 67 Saturday.

Luke Donald also posted a 67 to move into fifth place at 10-under-par 132.

The top two players in the world rankings -- Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson -- both shot six-under 65 Saturday. Woods shares 29th at minus-five, while Mickelson is tied for eighth at the TPC Boston at eight-under-par 134.

The tournament remains on schedule as the effects of Hurricane Earl moved by the course without much fanfare. The wind was up on Saturday, but the course received less than a half-inch of rain.

The field lost another player on Saturday as Chad Campbell was disqualified before he teed off in the second round. Tournament officials realized Friday evening that Campbell never register on-site, which is cause for disqualification.

Campbell entered the event 83rd on the FedExCup points list, and therefore is out of the final two playoff events because of the disqualification.

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.
