Boeljon birdies last for victory in Australia
Golf Betting Lines
02/05/2012 - Queensland, Australia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Christel Boeljon birdied the 72nd hole Sunday to polish off a come-from-behind victory at the Australian Ladies Masters.
Boeljon posted her second straight four-under 68 and won by a single stroke at 21-under 267. She was three back at the start of the final round of the season-opener on the Ladies European Tour.
Third-round leader and reigning U.S. Women's Open champion So Yeon Ryu, who fired an 11-under 61 on Friday, only managed an even-par 72 Sunday. She tied for second place with Diana Luna and Ha-Neul Kim, who both shot five-under 67s at the Royal Pines Resort.
With the four tied at 20-under par, Boeljon reached the par-five 18th in two. She left her eagle putt almost four feet short of the cup, but Ryu was in a bunker in two and hit a poor sand shot well past the flag.
Ryu missed her birdie putt and Boeljon converted her's to win the championship.
"My first putt, I was not really happy. It was a bit far away for my liking," said Boeljon. "I better make a two-putt and birdie and then it might be mine. It's not over, 'till it's over. I am really happy I finished with a birdie and it's unbelievable."
Gwladys Nocera fired an eight-under 64 on Sunday to take fifth at minus-18.
Lydia Ko, the 14-year-old amateur from New Zealand, who became the youngest winner of a professional golf tour event last week at the New South Wales Open, carded a two-over 74 Sunday and tied for 32nd at six-under par.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds
With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.
Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season. Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money.
This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy. A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:
| Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame) Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma) Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State) Michael Bush (RB, Louisville) Steve Slaton (RB, West Virginia) Brian Brohm (QB, Louisville) Chris Leak (QB, Florida) Mike Hart (RB, Michigan) Ted Ginn (WR, Ohio State) Darius Walker (RB, Notre Dame) Drew Tate (QB, Iowa) Marshawn Lynch (RB, Cal) Kenny Irons (RB, Auburn) Chad Henne (QB, Michigan) Kyle Wright (QB, Miami) Drew Stanton (QB, Michigan State) Kenneth Darby (RB, Alabama) JaMarcus Russell (QB, LSU) Drew Weatherford (QB, Florida State) Blake Mitchell (QB, South Carolina) Reggie Ball (QB, Georgia Tech) |
