Tennis Betting Lines

05/06/2009 - Estoril, Portugal (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former champion Nikolay Davydenko and sixth-seeded American Mardy Fish posted second-round wins, while third- seeded Spaniard David Ferrer came up a loser Wednesday at the $595,000 clay- court Estoril Open.

The second-seeded Davydenko handled fellow former Estoril champ Juan Carlos Ferrero 7-5, 6-2 at National Stadium. Davydenko titled here in 2003 and lost to the great Roger Federer in last year's Estoril finale. The former world No. 1 and former French Open champion Ferrero captured this event back in 2001.

Meanwhile, a sixth-seeded Fish came from behind to beat Spaniard Ivan Navarro 2-6, 6-1, 6-4, while Ferrer succumbed to fellow Spaniard Oscar Hernandez 6-2, 6-4 on Day 4. Fish will face Davydenko in Friday's quarterfinals.

One other second-rounder saw Chilean Paul Capdeville overtake Argentine Maximo Gonzalez 2-6, 6-2, 6-3. Capdeville will meet Hernandez in the round of eight.

The first round finally concluded with a pair of matches on Wednesday, as fourth-seeded American James Blake overcame Portuguese favorite Frederico Gil 5-7, 6-4, 6-2 for his first clay-court win of the year and Italian Fabio Fognini doused wild card and former French Open champ Gaston Gaudio of Argentina 6-3, 6-4. Gaudio titled here in 2005. Fognini is rewarded with a second-rounder against top-seeded Frenchman Gilles Simon, while Blake will take on France's Marc Gicquel on Thursday.

The 2009 Estoril champ will collect $96,000.
