Tennis Betting Lines

07/14/2010 - Bastad, Sweden (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded and defending champion Robin Soderling of the host nation and former champ David Ferrer posted second-round victories Wednesday at the Swedish Open.

The reigning two-time French Open runner-up Soderling snuck past two-time Bastad runner-up and fellow Swede Andreas Vinciguerra 6-2, 6-7 (6-8), 6-2 in 1 hour, 52 minutes on the red clay at Bastad Tennis Stadium. Soderling swatted 15 aces and never faced a break point on Day 3.

The 29-year-old Vinciguerra, a wild card this week, reached back-to-back finals here in 1999 and 2000.

Soderling, who beat Argentine Juan Monaco in last year's Bastad finale, will face Italian Andreas Seppi in Friday's quarterfinals here.

The third-seeded Ferrer, meanwhile, dismissed Italian Fabio Fognini 6-3, 7-5. The Spanish Ferrer, who, like Soderling and his other fellow top-four seeds, enjoyed an opening-round bye this week, titled here in 2007. Ferrer leads the ATP with 30 clay-court match wins this season (30-6).

Ferrer's quarterfinal opponent will be Uruguay's Pablo Cuevas, who drilled Spaniard Pere Riba 6-4, 6-2 on Day 3.

One other second-rounder on Wednesday saw Seppi outlast fellow Italian Potito Starace 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (9-7).

On Thursday, second-seeded Spaniard Fernando Verdasco will meet France's Stephane Robert and fifth-seeded two-time Bastad titlist Tommy Robredo will encounter Kazakhstan's Andrey Golubev in the second round. The Spanish Robredo titled here in 2006 and 2008.

LaDainian Tomlinson Favorite to be 2007 NFL MVP

With the first NFL preseason game less than two weeks away, it is time to start thinking about football once again at MySportsbook.com. Reigning NFL MVP LaDainian Tomlinson is currently the 5-1 co-favorite to win the award again alongside Super Bowl MVP Peyton Manning.

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone after his all out assault on the record books last season. For those suffering from amnesia or were under a rock last football season, all L.T. did last season was set the NFL record for rushing touchdowns (28), total touchdowns (31) and total points scored (186) to go along with his 1815 rushing yards and 508 receiving yards. At 6-1, Tom Brady is next in line which isn’t surprising considering all of the firepower the Pats added over the off-season. With the addition of Randy Moss, Donte Stallworth and Wes Welker; it would be quite difficult for Brady’s numbers not to improve from last years 3529 yards and 24 touchdowns. There appears to be some decent value in Drew Bees at 10-1 considering he probably would have won the award last year if it wasn’t for L.T.’s record breaking season.

There is no reason to think the Saints will come back to earth this season and playing in a weak NFC, they should have as good a shot as any to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. At 15-1, Donovan McNabb could also be worth a look. Remember, many felt he was the MVP of the first half of the season before going down with a season ending injury. Reportedly, he is in great shape and well ahead of schedule to return to form. Also, he could have some added motivation to put up big numbers this season with the Eagles using their first pick in the draft on McNabb’s future successor Kevin Kolb.
