Golf Betting Lines

05/03/2010 - Turin, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Italy's Matteo Manassero, who became the youngest British Amateur champion ever last year, turned professional on Monday in time to make his pro debut at the BMW Italian Open.

After being the youngest ever British Amateur champion at age 16, Manassero will be the second-youngest European Tour member ever. He will be 17 years and 17 days old on Thursday -- nine days older than Seve Ballesteros was when he made his professional debut.

"I feel ready to turn pro and am happy to play my first event as a professional in Italy at the BMW Italian Open," said Manassero. "I am grateful that the Italian Federation and the sponsors have given me the opportunity to start my professional career at home in front of my family and friends and all those who have supported me throughout my amateur career."

The young Italian played alongside Tom Watson and Sergio Garcia at the British Open last year and finished tied for 13th. He was the youngest player to earn low amateur honors in 60 years.

Manassero tied for 36th at the Masters earlier this year for low amateur honors and he became the first British Am winner since Garcia to make the cut at Augusta. Manassero was also the youngest to ever compete at the Masters.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
