Glasgow, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sweden's Johan Edfors claimed his third European Tour title of the season on Sunday and all he had to do was fire the lowest round of the tournament. The Swede posted a nine-under 63 in the final round to come from behind and win the Scottish Open. He finished at 13-under-par 271 and won the title by two shots at Loch Lomond.

 

Luke Donald carded a five-under 66 and tied for second place with Charl Schwartzel (67) and Andres Romero (69) at minus-11.

 

When Benn Barham missed a 10-foot birdie putt on the 72nd hole, Romero came in one ahead and had the best finish of any player this week who was not exempt for next week's British Open. That got him an invitation to Royal Liverpool in Hoylake.

 

Sunday's final round was expected to be a battle between the third-round co- leaders, Darren Clarke and Thomas Bjorn. The pair, both Ryder Cuppers and two of the European Tour's best, struggled mightily in the final round.

 

Edfors flew out of the gate on Sunday with a birdie at the second, then four in a row from the fourth. That got him to 10-under par and put him one behind the leaders for the final pairing even took the course.

 

The Swede birdied the ninth to tie for the lead, but Clarke tallied a pair of birdies at two and three, including a long one at the second to move to minus-13.

 

Edfors ran home a seven-foot birdie putt at the 14th to move two clear. Bjorn, who birdied the second, rolled in a 15-foot birdie putt at seven to get within one.

 

He waited for the final group and they did their part to give Edfors the title. Bjorn missed the fairway badly at nine, then sent his second over the green in an unplayable lie. Bjorn hit his fourth 40 feet past the hole, but poured in the long bogey putt. Clarke made bogey at the same hole to fall two back while Bjorn was one off the lead.

 

At the par-four 16th, Bjorn missed the green left with his approach and chunked his chip on to the fringe. He made bogey as he and Clarke were both two down with two to go.

 

"It was tough there at the end when Darren and Bjorn and Romero started playing well," admitted Edfors, who wandered off to the range to warm up for a potential playoff. "I really thought it was going to a playoff."

Big Ten Conference odds

Teams that should be in: Michigan State, Indiana
Work left to do: Illinois, Purdue, Michigan, Iowa

Behind the big two, the pecking order might be in a bit of flux. Has Michigan State passed Indiana after handling the Hoosiers in East Lansing? Where is Illinois in that mix? What looked like a four-big league last week could be morphing into five -- and even six is not unthinkable at this point if everything breaks right.

Should be in:

Michigan State [21-8 (8-6), RPI: 20, SOS: 15] The Spartans made it four-for-four on the homestand, a gigantic accomplishment that leaves them in extremely good shape. MSU is only 1-6 on the road and is at Michigan and at Wisconsin to close things out, meaning the date with the Wolverines on Tuesday looms very, very large. Beating Texas early will hold up well, as will the rout of Bradley and the win over BYU, but will 8-8 be enough? It very well could be, as the computer numbers are good, but why chance it?

Indiana [18-9 (8-6), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Hmm ... good thing the last two are at Northwestern and home to Penn State, because IU might want to get both to feel completely safe after dropping its third in the last four, fading after halftime at Michigan State. Who knew the best nonconference win would be over Southern Illinois, which is a gift that keeps on giving for the Hoosiers. The win over Wisconsin also looks good on the mantel.

Work left to do:

Illinois [21-9 (9-6), RPI: 31, SOS: 25] A good performance at Penn State leaves the Illini in pretty good shape. Can they go to Iowa and take care of business to really look on their way? That's a huge game, as there is a possible cluster of teams that will end at 9-7. Illinois beat Bradley, but has lost to Xavier. A 9-7 mark and a semifinals trip in Chicago could be enough with the computer profile hanging in there, but it would be better not to mess around, clinching at least a tie for third.

Purdue [18-10 (7-7), RPI: 47, SOS: 28] Couldn't get it done at Iowa, but did win at Northwestern to put 9-7 squarely in sight. Where does that leave the Boilermakers, though? Even if they beat Minnesota and Northwestern at home, that won't help the computer numbers. Nonconference wins over Virginia, DePaul and Oklahoma are solid, but not spectacular. The Boilers very well might need an upset in the B10 quarters to have a legit claim.

Michigan [19-10 (7-7), RPI: 55, SOS: 53] Well, Michigan did what it needed to do, winning at Minnesota to take control of its fate. The Wolverines have Michigan State and an already-wrapped-up-the-league Ohio State at home to close, so the chances are there. Win both and we can talk. There is no marquee win yet in the profile, and the Wolverines were splattered in several games against name opponents. A mediocre computer profile fueled by a lack of road wins isn't helping, either.

Iowa [16-12 (8-6), RPI: 80, SOS: 64] For the sake of being complete, we'll add Iowa, this season's Stanford. It's plausible that the Hawkeyes could get to 10-6 (at Penn State, vs. Illinois left), but where does that leave them after a gruesome nonconference performance where the best win was over ... Toledo? Iowa State? Cornell?? If they get to 10-6, we can start to look at what they need to do in the B10 tourney, although my gut sense is that they would need to make the final and have knocked off Ohio State or Wisconsin on the way to have any real claim.
