07/18/2010 - St. Andrews, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - South African Louis Oosthuizen rolled in an eagle putt on the ninth hole Sunday to take a four-stroke lead to the back nine in the final round of the British Open Championship.
Oosthuizen, who is in contention for the first time in a major championship, has played a steady round so far in the final pairing with Paul Casey.
The 27-year-old Oosthuizen parred his first seven holes to maintain his lead. However, he stumbled to a bogey on the eighth to slip to 14-under.
Oosthuizen atoned for that mistake by pouring in an eagle effort on the ninth to get to minus-16. His lead could have dipped to two, but instead was four.
Casey came up short of the second green and was unable to save par from there. The Englishman was suddenly five back.
After three straight pars, Casey got that stroke back with a two-putt birdie on No. 6. He parred seven and eight, and was within three after Oosthuizen's bogey at the eighth.
Casey two-putted for birdie on No. 9, but lost a stroke to the leader and made the turn at 12-under par.
Not only was Casey not making a move on Oosthuizen, but the final six players combined for six birdies and an eagle on the front nine.
With three-quarters of the field finished, only seven players posted rounds in the 60s, with Rickie Fowler and Alvaro Quiros both carding 67s for the low round of the day.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
