Golf Betting Lines

08/28/2010 - St. Catharines, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Leading money winner Aaron Goldberg shot a four-under 66 to join Kane Hanson in the lead Saturday after the third round of the Canadian Tour Championship.

Hanson, the 36-hole leader, managed only an even-par 70 and was tied with Goldberg at 10-under 200 on the St. Catharines course.

They shared a one-shot lead over fellow American Andres Gonzalez, who fired a 63 to move into third place at nine-under 201.

Devin Carrey was the top Canadian through 54 holes after shooting a 71 to enter the final round in fourth place at eight-under 202.

Everyone is vying for a piece of the largest purse in Canadian Tour history.

Goldberg, of course, is also seeking his third win of the season. He captured two in a row -- the Players Cup and Jane Rogers Championship -- and has risen to the top of the tour's money list.

Hanson, who carried a one-shot lead into Saturday's round, is seeking his first career win.

Goldberg made an early run, collecting three birdies on his first seven holes before he was tripped up at No. 8, where he made his only bogey. He added two more birdies on the back nine and shot 33 on both sides of the course.

Hanson, meanwhile, went birdie-bogey on his first two holes and his day was less eventful the rest of the way. He made his only other birdie at No. 6 and later bogeyed the 16th hole.

NOTES: The tournament purse is $325,000, including a winner's share of $52,000...Including Carrey, there were six Canadian players among the top 15. The remaining nine were all Americans.

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.
