Tennis Betting Lines

09/05/2010 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion Kim Clijsters needed just 59 minutes to post a straight set victory over former World No. 1 Ana Ivanovic in fourth round action at the 2010 U.S. Open.

Clijsters, the second seed, recorded a 6-2, 6-1 victory to advance into her fourth straight quarterfinal here, albeit in sporadic years starting in 2003. The Belgian took advantage of Ivanovic's poor second serve, winning 76 percent of the points on her opponents lesser serve.

The two-time U.S. Open champ won seven straight games to move to 4-0 in the second set before cruising to the finish line. She won 70 of the 115 points played in the match.

Next up for Clijsters will be either fifth-seeded Samantha Stosur or 12th- seeded Russian Elena Dementieva, who face off later Sunday. Clijsters figures to have a good chance to advance to the semis, as she has a 3-0 lifetime record against Stosur while winning 11 of 14 matches in her career against Dementieva.

Also advancing into the quarters on Sunday was reigning French Open champ and sixth-seeded Francesca Schiavone, who dominated 20th-seeded Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-3, 6-0. Schiavone is through to the quarters here for the first time since 2003, while Pavlyuchenkova's best career run in a Grand Slam tournament came to a screeching halt.

Schiavone will face the winner of the other fourth-round match between third- seeded Venus Williams and 16th-seeded Shahar Peer and figures to have a tough time with either of her opponents; she has an 0-7 record against Williams and a 1-3 mark against Peer.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday.

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
