06/20/2010 - Newton, IA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tony Kanaan snapped a 34-race winless drought in the IZOD IndyCar Series by taking Sunday's Iowa Corn Indy 250 at Iowa Speedway.
Kanaan, the 2004 series champion, passed Helio Castroneves with 10 laps remaining and then held off Castroneves at the finish by 4.2 seconds. It was Kanaan's 14th career IndyCar win, but his first since June 2008 at Richmond.
E.J. Viso finished a career-best third, while Ryan Briscoe and Will Power, the pole sitter, rounded out the top-five.
Power now holds an 11-point lead over Scott Dixon, who finished sixth. Dario Franchitti, who won at Iowa in 2007 and '09, suffered a gear-box issue late in the race and wound up finishing 18th. The defending series champion fell 14 points behind Power.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
