Golf Betting Lines

08/23/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ai Miyazato has moved to No. 1 in the world rankings for women's golf for the third time this season.

Miyazato bumped Cristie Kerr from the top spot after winning the Safeway Classic on Sunday for her fifth title on the LPGA Tour this season.

The 25-year-old Japanese star was also No. 1 in the rankings on June 21 and July 19. Both of those stints lasted only a week.

She is one of three players who have held the top spot since Lorena Ochoa's retirement in May. In addition to Miyazato and Kerr, Jiyai Shin has also been the women's No. 1.

"I think it's going to be back and forth again, because all the top-five players are just playing so good this year," Miyazato said Sunday. "I don't really feel like I'm that far above everyone else, so that's why I think that the rankings will still keep on changing."

Kerr knocked her approach shot into the water at the 18th hole Sunday and tied for second place behind Miyazato, dropping to No. 2 in the rankings. It was the second time she has been bumped from the top spot in the last two months.

Suzann Pettersen moved past Shin and into the No. 3 spot after tying for fourth place Sunday. Shin tied for sixth and dipped to No. 4 in the rankings, while Yani Tseng and Na Yeon Choi remained fifth and sixth.

Song-Hee Kim shared fourth with Pettersen and moved up three places to No. 7, dropping Paula Creamer, In Kyung Kim and Anna Nordqvist down one notch apiece to round out the top 10.

The remainder of the top 20 went, in order: Karrie Webb, Michelle Wie, Angela Stanford, Inbee Park, Morgan Pressel, Sakura Yokomine, Mi-Jeong Jeon, Chie Arimura, Brittany Lincicome and Katherine Hull.

FOOTBALL BETTING : Cassel Signs Contract

Kansas City, MO - Kansas City has not officially named Matt Cassel its starting quarterback, but there can be no doubt now.

NFL Betting
After praising his leadership and work ethic through spring workouts, the Chiefs announced Tuesday they had signed the 27-year-old Cassel to a multiyear contract. Terms were not disclosed, but he will almost certainly be one of the highest-paid members of the team.
"We are excited to be able to reach a long-term agreement for Matt Cassel to be a Kansas City Chief for many years to come," owner and board chairman Clark Hunt said in a statement. "His proven leadership on and off the field will be a tremendous asset to the organization."
Patriots made him their franchise player, meaning his salary for this season will be about $15 million.
New head coach Todd Haley, taking over for Herm Edwards after a 2-14 season, refused to name a starter at any position during offseason workouts. But it was obvious to everyone the team belonged to Cassel.
"I go out there each and every day with that focus that I'm the starter," Cassel said during a June minicamp. "Competition brings out the best in everybody."
The signing will come as welcome news to Cassel's new coaches and teammates. Amiable and hardworking, online football betting he appeared to win over everyone at minicamp.
"I think he's got some unique leadership qualities. I think his teammates like him and have respect for him. I think he's doing a pretty good job on the field, too," Haley said last month. "He's doing everything that I'm asking him, that our coaches are asking him to do. I don't have one single complaint how he's carrying himself."
After one workout, wide receiver Devard Darling declared Cassel "a breath of fresh air."
"He has a lot of swagger, a lot of confidence. It's good for us," said Darling. "We trust in him that he's going to go out there and lead us all the way."
nse to accommodate his specific abilities.
Trapped on the bench behind Heisman winners Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart at USC and then unable to unseat Super Bowl MVP Brady at New England, Cassel seemed destined to be a backup all his life. As Brady was helped off the field last September, Cassel seized the opportunity he'd been waiting for since high school.
In his only sustained action since his teens, he hit 349 of 555 passes for 3,949 yards at New England. He had 23 touchdown passes and 13 interceptions as the Patriots, who had gone unbeaten through the regular season the year before, finished 11-5 and out of the playoffs.
Chiefs general manager Scott Pioli, who had been Bill Belichick's assistant in New England, engineered the trade after the Patriots became convinced that Brady would recover fully from his knee operation.
"Since Matt arrived in Kansas City, he has embraced the team and the community," Pioli said. "His work ethic, his ability and competitive presence is what we expect from our players."
