Tennis Betting Lines

08/24/2010 - New Haven, CT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Second-seeded Australian Samantha Stosur advanced to the quarterfinals with a three-set victory over Sara Errani at the $600,000 Pilot Pen Tennis event, a final hardcourt U.S. Open tune-up on Tuesday.

The 26-year-old Stosur, June's French Open runner-up, defeated the 23-year-old Italian, 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (7-4) in the second-round matchup and has advanced to the quarterfinals or better in nine of the last 10 tournaments.

Earlier on Tuesday, former Wimbledon runner-up Marion Bartoli advanced to the second round, while 2009 U.S. Open semifinalist Yanina Wickmayer went by way of the opening-round upset.

The sixth-seeded Bartoli, of France, barely snuck past Ukrainian Alona Bondarenko 6-7 (4-7), 7-6 (7-2), 6-3, while the fifth-seeded Wickmayer, of Belgium, succumbed to Swiss Timea Bacsinszky 6-3, 6-1 at the Connecticut Tennis Center at Yale. Bartoli needed 2 hours, 39 minutes to stave off a game Bondarenko.

Bartoli's second-round opponent will be Aussie Anastasia Rodionova.

Seventh-seeded Italian Flavia Pennetta reached the second round with a 6-4, 6-4 decision against Russian Alisa Kleybanova.

Additional opening-round wins came for the aforementioned Rodionova, Belarusian Olga Govortsova and Russian Maria Kirilenko, who bested last year's New Haven runner-up and fellow Russian Elena Vesnina 6-1, 3-6, 6-1. Vesnina, a qualifier this week, lost to U.S. Open runner-up Caroline Wozniacki in last year's Pilot Pen finale.

Wozniacki, this week's top seed, is the two-time reigning New Haven champ and fresh off her title in Montreal on Monday.

The 2010 Pilot Pen champion will collect $98,500.

Football Betting: Defensive Rookie of the Year Awards

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.
