08/29/2010 - University Place, WA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Peter Uihlein defeated David Chung, 4 & 2 on Sunday to win the 110th U.S. Amateur Championship at Chambers Bay.
It will be a happy 21st birthday for the Oklahoma State University star.
"I hope everybody in Stillwater stays awake tonight because I'm coming back," Uihlein said in a television interview.
Uihlein took the lead at the second hole of their 36-hole final. He built a 3- up cushion, but Chung closed the gap to 2-down with his win at 11.
Chung made things closer with a beautiful near ace at the par-three 17th. He won that hole to go 1-down, but Uihlein reclaimed his 2-up lead right before the break when he chipped in from 40 feet for an eagle.
"It was good. It was solid. I played the tough stretch of holes pretty well," said Uihlein at the break. "I expect David to come out and make some putts and do [things]."
Uihlein built a 4-up lead after 27 holes, but Chung clawed back. He made a four-foot birdie putt at the 28th hole and sank a 25-footer for birdie at No. 11.
At the 14th, Uihlein drained a 20-foot birdie putt to get 3-up.
Two holes later, the match was over and the title belonged to Uihlein.
"Shocked and surprised," said Uihlein. "It's so surreal."
He receives an invitation to next year's U.S. Open and likely trips to the Masters and British Open Championship.
The runner-up traditionally receives an invitation to the Masters.

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.
