Tennis Betting Lines

08/16/2010 - Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sixteenth-seeded Frenchwoman Aravane Rezai moved on, while 14th-seeded Israeli Shahar Peer went by way of an opening- round upset Monday at the $2 million Rogers Cup, a U.S. Open tune-up.

Rezai came from behind to get past Czech Petra Kvitova 6-7 (1-7), 7-5, 6-3 in 2 hours, 26 minutes. The Frenchwoman piled up nine double faults, while the Wimbledon semifinalist Kvitova tallied eight, but Rezai also broke her Czech counterpart's serve on eight occasions, compared to six breaks for Kvitova.

Wimbledon quarterfinalist Kaia Kanepi, of Estonia, upended Peer in 6-3, 6-3 fashion on the hardcourts at Uniprix Stadium.

Additional Day-1 wins came for Czech qualifier Iveta Benesova, Kazakhstan's Yaroslava Shvedova, Aussie Jarmila Groth and Austrian Sybille Bammer. Benesova is rewarded with a second-round match against top-seeded former world No. 1 Jelena Jankovic of Serbia.

Elena Dementieva beat former No. 1 Maria Sharapova in last year's all-Russian Rogers Cup finale in Toronto. This event shifts between Toronto and Montreal each year.

Dementieva is this week's fourth seed, while Sharapova pulled out here on Monday, citing a foot injury. Sharapova lost to U.S. Open champ Kim Clijsters in this past Sunday's finale in Cincinnati.

This week's winner will earn $350,000.
