Tennis Betting Lines

08/18/2010 - Mason, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top seeds Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic were a pair of second-round winners Wednesday at the $3 million Western & Southern Financial Group Masters, a U.S. Open Series event.

The world No. 1 Nadal handled oft-injured American qualifier Taylor Dent 6-2, 7-5, while the second-seeded, but world No. 3, Djokovic doused Serb Viktor Troicki 6-3, 7-5 on the hardcourts at the Lindner Family Tennis Center. Nadal is now 27-3 in ATP Masters 1000 events this year.

Djokovic has lost in the last two finals here, with Roger Federer getting the best of him last year.

The Wimbledon and French Open champion Nadal will face France's Julien Benneteau in the third round here on Thursday, while Djokovic will battle Argentine star David Nalbandian, a titlist in Washington, D.C. two weeks ago. Nalbandian was trailing John Isner 4-5 in the first set on Wednesday when the 6-foot-9 American retired from their match. The hot Nalbandian has now won 13 of his last 14 matches.

Upsets came when the wild card/surging American Mardy Fish dismissed eighth- seeded Spaniard Fernando Verdasco and capable Latvian Ernests Gulbis knocked out 13th-seeded Austrian Jurgen Melzer 6-7 (8-10), 6-3, 7-6 (7-5).

Fish, who has won 13 of his last 14 matches, including titles in Newport and Atlanta, was the Cincinnati runner-up back in 2003.

Tenth-seeded Spaniard David Ferrer avoided an upset by handling American Sam Querrey 7-5, 6-2. Querrey is a four-time champion on the ATP World Tour this season.

In other second-round play, France's Richard Gasquet grounded German Michael Berrer 6-4, 6-2, German Philipp Kohlschreiber got past Colombian qualifier Alejandro Falla 6-0, 1-6, 6-3, and Frenchman Julien Benneteau blitzed Swiss Stanislas Wawrinka 6-4, 6-2.

The 2010 Cincinnati titlist will claim $443,500.
