Golubev wins Hamburg title

Tennis Betting Lines

07/25/2010 - Hamburg, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andrey Golubev has won his first title in his second career final, beating third-seeded Austrian Jurgen Melzer 6-3, 7-5 on Sunday at the German Open.

Golubev, who did not lose a set this week, became the first player from Kazakhstan to win an ATP World Tour title and the third first-time winner this season, joining American John Isner and Latvia's Ernests Gulbis.

The just-turned 23-year-old hadn't been past the second round in any of his 11 previous ATP tournaments this year before this week's run, which included a third-round upset of top-seeded Nikolay Davydenko.

Golubev lost in the final to Andy Murray two years ago in St. Petersburg, Russia.

Melzer, meanwhile, fell to 2-7 all-time in finals. He won four years ago in Bucharest and last October in his hometown of Vienna.

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.
