Golf Betting Lines

07/11/2010 - Saskatoon, SK (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Will Wilcox closed with a six-under 66 Sunday to hold off Brady Stockton and win the Dakota Dunes Casino Open.

Stockton fired a seven-under 65 at Dakota Dunes Golf Links to end one stroke back at minus-24.

Geary (70) and Garrett Frank (68) shared third place at 20-under-par 268.

Wilcox posted birdies on two and six to move to 21-under. After a birdie on the 10th, he converted back-to-back birdie chances from the 13th to get to 24- under.

After three straight pars, Wilcox birdied the last to claim his first Canadian Tour victory in just his second tour start.

Stockton, who played in the final threesome with Wilcox and Geary, was right there. He birdied the second, then made three more birdies between the fifth and ninth to turn in 21-under.

Around the turn, he poured in three straight birdies from the 11th to jump to 24-under. However, Stockton only managed to par the final five holes to end one back.

NOTES: Danny Sahl (66), Wil Collins (65), Cody Slover (61) and Clayton Rask (69) shared fifth at 19-under-par 269...2009 champion Andres Gonzales closed with a 69 to finish tied for 43rd at minus-11...Next up is the Canadian Tour Players Cup, where Graham DeLaet won by one shot over three players last year.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
