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 favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect

LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.

Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.

Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
