Woods unable to get anything going

Golf Betting Lines

07/17/2010 - St. Andrews, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Three-time Open champion Tiger Woods mixed four bogeys and three birdies in a round of one-over 73 Saturday at the British Open.

Woods finished three rounds at three-under-par 213 and is currently 10 behind leader Louis Oosthuizen, who is still completing the third round.

"I couldn't get anything started today. I hit the ball better than the first two days and I got nothing out of the round," Woods admitted.

He hit 13-of-16 fairways on Saturday to raise his total to 37-of-48 for the week.

"My ball-striking is right where I need to have it," Woods stated. "I'm hitting the ball really well, I'm controlling the shots, but I'm just not getting it in the hole."

Woods had his worst putting round of the week as he needed 35 putts in his round.

"Some of the greens are faster than others. Around the loop (holes 7-11), they seem to be a little bit quicker," explained Woods. "I putted beautifully the first day. Yesterday and today, it felt like I three-putted every hole. It's frustrating because I'm hitting it well enough to contend in this tournament and I'm just not there."

Woods was plus-two through eight holes with six pars and a pair of bogeys. He two-putted for birdie on the ninth to get one back.

He got back to even-par for his round, and minus-three for the championship, with a birdie at 12, but dropped another stroke on the 13th.

Woods rolled in a birdie putt from just over 20 feet out on 15 before finding more trouble at the Road Hole. He drove left into the thick rough at 17 and could only pitch back to the fairway.

His third rolled off the right side of the green and into the rough across the road. Woods hit a stellar chip to tap-in range. At the last, Woods drove the green, but three-putted from long distance to close out his 73.

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.

Bet on NFL Football

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.
