Golf Betting Lines
09/06/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ai Miyazato remained No. 1 in the world rankings for women's golf for the third week in a row.
Miyazato grabbed the No. 1 ranking from Cristie Kerr following a win on August 22, her third victory on the LPGA Tour this season. She held the top spot two times before that, but both stints lasted only a week.
Kerr remained No. 2 behind Miyazato, but Jiyai Shin moved up one spot to No. 3, bumping Suzann Pettersen to No. 4.
Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi, Michelle Wie, In Kyung Kim, Song-Hee Kim and Paula Creamer rounded out the top 10 in the same positions they held last week.
Anna Nordqvist, Karrie Webb, Angela Stanford, Morgan Pressel, Inbee Park and Sakura Yokomine also held the same spots (11-16), while Mi-Jeong Jeon moved up one to 17th and Sun Ju Ahn leapt two to 18th.
Those moves knocked Chie Arimura down two places to 19th and Brittany Lincicome down one to 20th.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards
Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
