Tennis Betting Lines

08/11/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - World No. 2 Novak Djokovic was a second-round winner Wednesday at the $2.43 million Roger Cup, an ATP Masters event.

Djokovic, who struggled mightily with the hot conditions here on Day 3, snuck past game Frenchman Julien Benneteau 7-5, 7-5 on the hardcourts at Rexall Centre. The 2007 Rogers Cup titlist Djokovic required the services of a trainer during the hard-fought encounter, but was able to finish off his French counterpart in straight sets in 2 hours, 12 minutes.

The former Aussie Open champion Djokovic will face Romanian Victor Hanescu in the round of 16 here.

Meanwhile, sixth-seeded Russian Nikolay Davydenko moved on with a 7-5, 6-1 victory over Italian qualifier Fabio Fognini, while former top-five Argentine star David Nalbandian stayed red-hot with a 56-minute 6-3, 6-0 pasting of former top-10 Spaniard Tommy Robredo. The 2003 Rogers Cup runner-up Nalbandian was last week's hardcourt champ at the U.S. Open Series event in Washington, D.C. and has now won his last 10 matches on tour.

Mild upsets came when rising Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov took out 12th- seeded Russian Mikhail Youzhny 1-6, 7-6 (7-4), 7-5 and Frenchman Michael Llodra dismissed 14th-seeded Spaniard Nicolas Almagro 7-6 (7-5), 6-2. The lefthanded Llodra's third-round opponent will be the great Roger Federer, who captured this Canadian Masters event in 2004 and 2006 and was the runner-up in 2007.

Fifteenth-seeded Frenchman Gael Monfils avoided an upset by handling Dutchman Thiemo De Bakker 7-5, 6-3.

The aforementioned Hanescu got past Canadian wild card Peter Polansky 6-4, 7-6 (7-4).

This week's big winner will collect $443,500.
