Lee to meet Farlow in Senior Amateur final

Golf Betting Lines

09/06/2007 - Andover, KS (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sam Farlow and Stanford Lee both won a pair of matches on Wednesday to move into the final at the USGA Senior Amateur Championship.

Lee, who is from Heber Springs, Arkansas, first beat Logan Jackson on the 19th hole to move into the semifinals. Lee then didn't trail in his semifinal in topping Stu Grendahl, 4 & 3. Lee had birdies on holes eight through 10 to distance himself from his opponent in his last match of the day.

"I honestly cannot believe I'm in the finals," said Lee. "But I believe if I continue to play the way I'm playing I have a good chance to win it. I know I'm going to have to play extremely well."

Farlow topped Vinny Giles, the 1972 U.S. Amateur champion, 4 & 3 in the quarterfinals and then took out Frank Ford III, 2 & 1 to move into the 18-hole championship at Flint National Golf Club.

Farlow parred the second hole and stayed in front the rest of the way to the final.

"When I hit some of these shots out here today, I realized why I don't play for a living anymore," said Farlow, a PGA Tour player in the mid 1970's.

Now he'll face another former PGA player, as Lee was on the Tour from 1976-80.

Grendahl beat Arthur Pierse, 4 & 3; and Ford upended Alistair Catto on the 19th hole in the other quarterfinals earlier Wednesday.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
