Tennis Betting Lines
07/29/2010 -
Stanford, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Australian Samantha Stosur moved
into the quarterfinals at the $700,000 Bank of the West Classic tennis event
with a 6-1, 7-5 victory over American qualifier Christina McHale.
Stosur, who lost to Francesca Schiavone in the finale at Roland Garros, is
playing her first tournament since breaking into the top five. She leads the
WTA Tour this year with 36 victories and reached the quarterfinals here for a
fourth straight year.
Next up for Stosur will be seventh-seeded Belgian Yanina Wickmayer, who beat
Slovakia's Dominika Cibulkova, 6-1, 6-4 on the hardcourts at Taube Family
Tennis Stadium.
There were two other second-round encounters Wednesday. No. 2 seed Elena
Dementieva of Russia downed Japan's Kimiko Date Krumm, 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 and
third-seeded Pole Agnieszka Radwanska got past Ukrainian qualifier Olga
Savchuk, 7-6 (7-4), 6-2.
Dementieva had been sidelined by a calf injury since retiring from her
semifinal match against Schiavone at the French Open early last month.
On Thursday, second-round matches will come for fourth-seeded reigning
Stanford champion Marion Bartoli and fifth-seeded former world No. 1 star
Maria Sharapova of Russia. The French Bartoli surprised American star Venus
Williams in last year's finale here. Williams beat the big-hitting Bartoli in
the 2007 Wimbledon championship match.
Bartoli's opponent on Thursday will be former top-ranked Serbian star Ana
Ivanovic.

Oddsmakers have released the odds for the 2009 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award and Seattle Seahawks linebacker Aaron Curry has been made the opening favorite.
Bet on NFL Football
Seattle took Curry with the fourth overall pick in April's NFL draft and plan on inserting him into its starting lineup right away. The Hawks traded linebacker Julian Peterson in the offseason, so Curry is expected to have a significant role in Seattle's defense next year and that's one of the primary reasons he is the favorite to win the NFL ROY Award.
Oddsmakers from online sportsbook MySportsbook.com have made Curry a 5/1 favorite to win this year's NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Award. Given that he was the best defensive prospect in this year's draft and how he'll have plenty of opportunities to make plays in '09, Curry offers a ton of value at 5/1.
Another thing working for Curry is the position he plays. A linebacker has won the defensive ROY award six straight times and eight of the last nine years. Jerod Mayo, Patrick Willis, DeMeco Ryans, Shawne Merriman, Jonathan Vilma, Terrell Suggs, Kendrell Bell and Brian Urlacher were the most recent linebackers to take home the award.
Following Curry at 5/1 are Tyson Jackson (Chiefs) at 7/1, James Laurinaitas (Rams) at 8/1, Brian Orakpo (Redskins) at 10/1, Rey Maualuga (Bengals) at 10/1 and Jerry Peria (Falcons) at 10/1.
All the players mentioned above are expected to start for their respective teams, but Jackson and Peria are going to have a tough time being recognized on a national level given they're both defensive linemen. D-linemen rarely put up the numbers that it takes to win an individual award like the ROY.
A couple of players with some value are Clay Matthews (Packers) at 12/1 and Larry English (Chargers) at 15/1. Matthews is expected to start at outside linebacker in Green Bay's new 3-4 defense and could rack up a ton of tackles. English, who was an impressive player at Northern Illinois, is expected to be a situational pass rusher for the Chargers and could rack up a ton of sacks.
