06/25/2009 - Devens, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Kimberly Kim, the 2006 U.S. Women's Amateur Champion, knocked off Sara-Maude Juneau, 2 & 1, Thursday to win her third- round match at the U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links Championship.
Kim advanced to Friday's quarterfinal and it took some work.
Juneau was 2-up through 12, but Kim won 13 with a birdie, then took the 14th with a conceded eagle to square the match.
"I felt like, gee, I'm so tired. Thank you, Lord," Kim said of the concession.
Kim captured the 16th with a par and hit her approach to two feet at 17. She made a birdie and won the match.
Kim will meet Sun Gyoung Park in the quarterfinals. Park destroyed Kristen Schelling to the tune of 5 & 4 on Thursday.
Stroke-play medalist Stephanie Kono's run ended in the third round. Kono lost to Jisoo Park, 1-down.
Park rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt at 15 to knot her match with Kono. Park claimed the 16th with a par and the pair halved the 17th. Kono needed a birdie at the last to force extra holes. Her putt narrowly missed and Park two-putted for the win.
Park, who is playing in her first USGA championship, drew Cydney Clanton on Friday morning. Clanton edged out Lizette Salas, 1-up, in Thursday's third round.
Jennifer Song, last year's runner-up, dispatched Brittany Altomare, 1-up, to set up a quarterfinal match with Casie Cathrea, who earned a 2 & 1 victory over Alice Kim.
The final quarterfinal match on Friday will see Sydnee Michaels versus Joanna Coe.

NFL Football Betting : Odds on NFL Division to Win the Super Bowl
The AFC South and the NFC East are the favorite divisions to have the next Super Bowl champ among them in the NFL betting odds. But more down to the point, these football odds are in favor of the Indianapolis Colts, by far the strongest team in the AFC South, and the Dallas Cowboys of the NFC East.
Most sports fans would agree that these two teams top the list to win it all before the season even begins. In the BetUS Sportsbook football futures, the Colts are +800 in the odds to win the Super Bowl, while the Cowboys are sitting at +1000 and the Super Bowl XLIV champions New Orleans Saints at +900. In the AFC South, the Colts won the division for five straight years after the 2002 realignment, before the Tennessee Titans won it in 2008. But the Colts came back strong in 2009 to win the division again en route to the Super Bowl. The Cowboys are the favorite to win the NFC East, as well as to advance far into the post season. The Cowboys won the division last season before their horrendous loss in the NFC Divisional playoff to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings. But the ‘Boys will take that loss humbly and be ready for the playoffs this time around.
The NFC South is also very strong, at +600 in the NFL futures, considering that it is home to the defending Super Bowl champions. However, some predictions have the Atlanta Falcons with possibilities of claiming the divisional title this season in place of the Saints, as no team has won back-to-back division championships since the division realignment took place. Let’s not overlook the AFC North at +500. As TO goes to Cincinnati to join Chad OchoCinco and Adam “Pac-Man” Jones, this team looks to claim the division title again. And it is likely they will do so. The Bengals lost in the AFC Wild Card spot in a hard-fought battle against the New York Jets last season. Lest not forget the Pittsburgh Steelers, the XLII Super Bowl Champions… All these teams present interesting odds and matchups for the upcoming season, but the safest and surest bet seems to be with the Colts in the AFC South and the Cowboys in the NFC East. Play this weekly NFL Football Contestto see if you can win.
