Miyazato returns to No. 1 in rankings
Golf Betting Lines
08/23/2010 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ai Miyazato has moved to No. 1 in the world rankings for women's golf for the third time this season.
Miyazato bumped Cristie Kerr from the top spot after winning the Safeway Classic on Sunday for her fifth title on the LPGA Tour this season.
The 25-year-old Japanese star was also No. 1 in the rankings on June 21 and July 19. Both of those stints lasted only a week.
She is one of three players who have held the top spot since Lorena Ochoa's retirement in May. In addition to Miyazato and Kerr, Jiyai Shin has also been the women's No. 1.
"I think it's going to be back and forth again, because all the top-five players are just playing so good this year," Miyazato said Sunday. "I don't really feel like I'm that far above everyone else, so that's why I think that the rankings will still keep on changing."
Kerr knocked her approach shot into the water at the 18th hole Sunday and tied for second place behind Miyazato, dropping to No. 2 in the rankings. It was the second time she has been bumped from the top spot in the last two months.
Suzann Pettersen moved past Shin and into the No. 3 spot after tying for fourth place Sunday. Shin tied for sixth and dipped to No. 4 in the rankings, while Yani Tseng and Na Yeon Choi remained fifth and sixth.
Song-Hee Kim shared fourth with Pettersen and moved up three places to No. 7, dropping Paula Creamer, In Kyung Kim and Anna Nordqvist down one notch apiece to round out the top 10.
The remainder of the top 20 went, in order: Karrie Webb, Michelle Wie, Angela Stanford, Inbee Park, Morgan Pressel, Sakura Yokomine, Mi-Jeong Jeon, Chie Arimura, Brittany Lincicome and Katherine Hull.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
