Chen and Dambaugh in U.S. Girls' Junior final
Golf Betting Lines
07/23/2010 -
Village of Pinehurst, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Doris Chen and Katelyn Dambaugh
won both of their matches on Friday to advance to the final of the U.S. Girls'
Junior Championship.
Chen first knocked off stroke-play medalist Danielle Kang in Friday's
quarterfinals, then toppled Gyeol Park, 4 & 3 in Friday afternoon's semifinal
action.
Dambaugh had an easier time of it on Friday. She beat Stephanie Liu, 2 & 1 in
the quarterfinals and crushed Ally McDonald, 7 & 6 in the afternoon's
semifinals.
If Dambaugh were to emerge victorious in Saturday's 36-hole final, she would
become the first female left-handed player to win a USGA championship. There
were five left-handed male golfers to hoist a USGA trophy, but Dambaugh could
be the first female.
Dambaugh fell 1-down in her match against Liu, but pulled ahead with wins at
five and six. She stayed in front the rest of the match and even built a 2-up
lead through 11 holes.
Liu cut her deficit to 1-down when Dambaugh double-bogeyed the 12th. Liu
bogeyed the par-three 16th to go 2-down with two to play, then Dambaugh closed
out the match at 17 when the pair both made pars.
"I didn't expect to get this far," Dambaugh admitted Friday after her
quarterfinal win. "I was just hoping to make the cut."
When Dambaugh got to the semifinals against McDonald, she won the second hole
and never looked back. She built a 5-up lead at the turn and extended to 6-up
with a par at No. 10.
McDonald made a mess of the par-five 12th and that was enough for Dambaugh.
She won the hole and that ended the route at 7 & 6.
Chen never trailed in her match against Kang. They halved the first five holes
and Chen won the sixth with a par. She got to 2-up at eight, but Kang won
nine to get back to 1-down.
Chen birdied the par-three 13th and was once again 2-up. The match stayed at
2-up until Kang took the 16th with a par. The two halved the 17th with
birdies, then halved 18 with pars to allow Chen to advance.
"I didn't play well the first two rounds," Chen said after her quarterfinal
win. "I wasn't hitting the ball as well in the practice rounds. Since the
third round, I am hitting more back to normal. I know where I cannot hit it. I
am just improving every day."
In the semifinals, Chen jumped out early against Park with a win at the third.
Chen's advantage was 3-up at the turn and after a par at No. 10, she was 4-up.
Chen stayed 4-up over the next five holes and that was enough to move her into
the final.

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)
