07/18/2010 - St. Andrews, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The top two players in the world were unable to make a charge Sunday at the British Open.
Tiger Woods, a three-time Open champion, could only muster an even-par 72 in the final round Sunday. He finished the championship at three-under-par 285.
World No. 2 Phil Mickelson could have passed Woods in the world rankings with a win this week, but only broke par in two of the four rounds. He stumbled to a three-over 75 Sunday to finish at one-over-par 289.
Leader Louis Oosthuizen is 17-under par.
Both top players have been inconsistent of late.
Woods returned from his neck injury at the Memorial Tournament. Though he shared fourth with Mickelson at the U.S. Open, Woods was a non-factor in his other two events, the Memorial and the AT&T National.
Mickelson, who won the Masters back in April, has three top-five finishes since Augusta, including one at the U.S. Open, but he also missed a pair of cuts.
Woods, who had won the last two Opens at St. Andrews, got off to a quick start with birdies on one and two, but gave both those strokes back with a double- bogey on the fourth after he left a shot in a bunker.
At the seventh, Woods found more sand and that led to another double-bogey. Woods birdied the ninth for the fourth straight day.
He got back to even-par for his round with a birdie at the 12th. Woods then bogeyed the 13th for the third day in a row, but closed with a birdie at the last.
Mickelson birdied the third and fifth to move to minus-four. After six straight pars, his round fell apart.
He stumbled to a bogey on the 12th, then bogeyed the par-five 14th. Mickelson faltered to a double-bogey at the 16th for the second straight day. That dropped him back to even-par for the championship.
Mickelson bogeyed the Road Hole, No. 17, for the third consecutive day. He parred the last to end at plus-one.
The struggle for Mickelson was nothing new at this championship. He owns just one top-10 finish in his 17 British Open starts.

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) |
