Goldberg wins again, sets Canadian money record

Golf Betting Lines

08/29/2010 - St. Catharines, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Aaron Goldberg closed with a five-under 65 on Sunday -- his best round of the week -- to win the Canadian Tour Championship by six shots.

Even more impressive? It was the American's third win of the season, netting him $52,000 and the all-time Canadian Tour record for most money earned in a season.

"I could get used to this," joked Goldberg.

He carded four consecutive rounds of 67 or better to finish with a 15-under 265 on the St. Catharines course, making an eagle, five birdies and a double- bogey in the final round.

Five players tied for second place at nine-under 271.

Goldberg has won three of his last four Canadian Tour starts -- he missed the cut at the PGA Tour's Canadian Open during that span -- pushing his season earnings to $151,912.

That broke the previous single-season mark of $129,158 set by Trevor Dodds in 1996. Dodds also holds the season wins record, capturing four during that '96 season.

Goldberg has one more chance to reach the milestone -- but will have to wait a long time. The tour wraps up its season at the Desert Dunes Classic in November.

"It's been quite an unbelievable season," Goldberg said.

Josh Habig and Clayton Rask both carded rounds of 65 to lead the five-way tie for second place at nine-under 271. They were joined by Brian Unk (66), Mitch Gillis (68) and Kane Hanson (71).

NOTES: The tournament purse was $325,000, the largest in Canadian Tour history...The top 17 finishers were either American (11) or Canadian (6).

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).
