Golf Betting Lines

08/22/2010 - Seaforth, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kent Eger fired a six-under 65 Sunday to come from behind and win the Seaforth Country Classic.

Eger, who also won this title in 2008, finished at 20-under-par 264.

Josh Geary carded a seven-under 64 to take second place at minus-18. Tom Glissmeyer (67) and Cesar Coello (66) shared third at 17-under-par 267.

Darren Griff, who was given the third-round lead when Jose de Jesus Rodriguez was disqualified for failing to sign his scorecard, closed with a one-under 70. He ended in a tie for fifth with Matt McQuillan (65).

Eger was well off the pace after he opened with eight consecutive pars. He finally made birdie at the ninth and carded his second birdie on the 12th.

The 29-year-old Canadian broke through a crowded leaderboard thanks to four straight birdies from the 14th. He headed to the last with a two-stroke lead and posted a closing par for his second Canadian Tour title.

"I just really enjoy playing here," Eger said. "I sort of tweaked my attitude coming into this week. It seems I've played frustrated for the past year and a half. Now I'm just trying to stay out of my own way. It seems to be working."

NOTES: Aaron Goldberg, who tops the tour's Order of Merit thanks to a pair of wins, closed with a two-under 69 to share seventh...Brock Mackenzie, No. 2 on the Order of Merit, shared 13th at minus-13 after a 69 of his own...Next week is the Canadian Tour Championship, where James Love won last year.

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).
