Woody Austin wins St. Jude

Golf Betting Lines

06/10/2007 - Memphis, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Woody Austin was so good, it didn't matter what anyone else did.

The way he played the final round of the Stanford St. Jude Championship, no one was beating him.

"That was a true round of golf. It was one of those surprises we all get once in a while," Austin said Sunday after firing an eight-under 62 in the final round at TPC Southwind.

"I'm just lucky it happened for me when it really matters."

Austin slammed his foot on the pedal Sunday and never let up, posting six birdies and an eagle for the best round of his 13-year PGA Tour career.

He made five birdies on the back nine -- in stark contrast to overnight leader Adam Scott, who shot a 39 on the back -- and finished the tournament with 49 consecutive bogey-free holes.

In the end, Austin stood at 13-under 267 for a five-shot win over England's Brian Davis. It was the 43-year-old grinder's third PGA Tour win and first since the 2004 Buick Championship.

His first two wins came in playoffs.

"I'm shocked I'm not going into a playoff," Austin joked.

It wasn't even close.

Davis had a four-under 66 and was a distant, if not surprising, runner-up at eight-under 272. David Toms closed with a one-under 69 and finished in third place at seven-under 273.

Brian Gay (70) was fourth at six-under 274, while Brandt Snedeker (68) and Dean Wilson (68) were a shot further back at 275.

Scott entered the final round with a three-shot lead and was tied with Austin at 10-under after making a nine-foot birdie putt at the 12th hole.

But he bogeyed the 13th and made disastrous triple-bogey at the 14th, suddenly falling five back. He made one more birdie and then closed with three straight bogeys to shoot a five-over 75.

Scott finished seventh at four-under 276.

After all the trouble that’s ensued since Braylon Edwards allegedly punched one of LeBron James’ homeboys in the face at a club, the Cleveland Browns have sent away their last remaining player of worth to the New York Jets. This is a great move for Dirty Sanchez and all, but it’s even better for the Knicks. Now Donnie Walsh can say, “You get to haunt Braylon Edwards with your posse if you sign here!” next summer.

Putting that aside for a moment, the move is a clear indication that the new-look Jets are gunning for the Super Bowl this year. I don’t think that New York thought that Dirty Sanchez was going to be such a rock star. With a 75.2 passer rating that was killed against the Jets, Sanchez is doing an admirable job of managing games and putting the Jets in a position to win. The defense has been the major story in New York thus far, but the acquisition of Braylon Edwards makes this offense loaded with talent that can dent any defense…as long as Dirty Sanchez continues his meteoric rise.

Thus far, Edwards has been a non-factor in the NFL piling up just 139 receiving yards on 10 catches. He has yet to find the endzone, and with the Browns mired in the most unsexy quarterback controversy of all time (Anderson vs. Quinn...yawn), there going nowhere fast. Edwards is two seasons removed from a career year which saw him catch 80 passes for 1,289 yards and 16 touchdowns when the Browns were the spread killing monsters of 2007. In 2008, injuries slowed the receiver down to just 873 yards and three touchdowns though he played in all 16 games.

So that being said, we really don’t know if Braylon Edwards is just a flash in the pan, or a legit threat. At 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, he is a prototypical receiver. But he’s also shown a strange, and unwarranted, talent for dropping passes. Lining up opposite Jericho Cotchery, a speed demon with 23 catches, 356 yards and a single touchdown, may give Braylon the open looks he needs. A change of scenery may also rejuvenate the star receiver.

In return, the Browns will receive Chansi Stuckey, online football betting a special teams player you’ve never heard of and a pair of draft picks. That’s a tall order for a guy whose only real value right now is in his name, and it shows no promise to the Browns that they can rebuild around those acquisitions. Braylon was the only reason to hope for the Browns to go 3-14 SU this year. Without him, they don’t have a single guy on offense that can scare any team.

For the Jets, it’s a response to the pounding that they took at the hand of the Saints. Thomas Jones and Leon Washington have averaged around 4.0 yards per carry each on the ground, but striking a fair balance between the passing and rushing attacks in New York has been a struggle. You have to believe that the trio of Dustin Keller, Jericho Cotchery and Braylon Edwards will give Sanchez the weapons he needs to unleash through the air. Theoretically, that would open up holes for the rushing game. But the proposed public option health care plan works in theory too. We need to see the proof in the pudding before we start loading up mega bucks on the New York Jets to take the AFC.

The one wrinkle in this whole thing is that Braylon could very well be suspended by the league for disciplinary action due to his “brawl” with LeBron’s friend. If that’s the case, the Jets may have to bench him for a few games leaving them with a somewhat depleted receiving corps for a few games. Also, this is a guy who gets in fights with people at clubs. New York may not be the best place for him. Just sayin’.

The Jets have a long week before they meet the Miami Dolphins on Monday Night Football Betting in a virtual pick ‘em game. Braylon’s excess baggage may be a distraction, and his curiously low production may be what we should be expecting of him overall, but for the Jets, taking a chance to strike gold is well worth it. At the end of the year, they can simply just blame it on their rookie quarterback.
