Van den Berg wins on Sunshine Tour

Golf Betting Lines

07/30/2010 - Port Elizabeth, South Africa (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ulrich van den Berg shot an even-par 72 on Friday, but it was enough to capture the Vodacom Business Origins of Golf event.

Van den Berg finished at 14-under 202 and won by a stroke at Humewood Golf Club.

Second-round leader Daniel Greene struggled to a four-over 76 on Friday and came in second place in his pursuit for a first victory on the Sunshine Tour.

Greene held a two-shot lead on the 17th hole, but landed his third in a pot bunker and played out sideways. He gave himself 40 feet for par, but three- putted for a double-bogey.

The two were tied for first, then van den Berg lipped out a three-foot par putt on the 18th hole. Greene pulled his drive at 18 and knocked his second into another pot bunker. He blasted out to 22 feet, but left his par putt four feet short.

Greene had to make his four-footer for bogey to force a playoff, but he missed to the left giving van den Berg his first win on the circuit in almost three years.

"It would have been nice to have seen that putt go in and I could have won it rather than Daniel lose it," van den Berg said of his putt on 18. "I feel a bit sad for Daniel because I have been in that situation before, and it really makes you feel empty. But I'm sure he will be in this position again, and he'll win."

Doug McGuigan shot a four-under 68 and took third at minus-11.

Dion Fourie (67), Alan Michell (69) and Jean Hugo (71) shared fourth at 10- under 206.

Super Bowl XLIV Odds

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.

Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.

Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds

With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.

That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.

Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.

After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.

The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
