05/13/2010 - Austin, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Texas Longhorns guard Varez Ward and forward Shawn Williams have each been granted a medical hardship waiver by the Big 12 Conference for the 2009-10 season.
As a result, Ward will be a redshirt sophomore for the 2010-11 season, while Williams will be a redshirt freshman.
The players were lost to injuries early this past season. Ward ruptured his right quadriceps tendon in pre-game warmups for a November 24 contest against Pittsburgh, and underwent surgery on December 1. Ward had started Texas' first three games of the season and averaged 6.7 points and 3.0 rebounds in 23 minutes per game.
Williams suffered a left ankle injury December 12 against Texas State, and missed the rest of the year after having surgery on January 20. He played in seven of the Longhorns' first eight games, averaging 1.6 points and 1.7 boards in a little under six minutes per contest.

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.
