Tennis Betting Lines
09/18/2008 - Tokyo, Japan (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Jelena Jankovic and Olympic champion Elena Dementieva breezed into the quarterfinals at the Pan Pacific Open Thursday.
Jankovic of Serbia destroyed Italian Flavia Pennetta, 6-2, 6-1, in just 61 minutes while Dementieva needed just 69 minutes to dispose of France's Alize Cornet, 6-0, 6-3.
With the win, Dementieva joined Jankovic, Serena Williams, Dinara Safina and Ana Ivanovic in qualifying for the season-ending Sony Ericsson Championships, where the world's top eight singles players will be competing in Doha, Qatar, from November 4-9.
"One of my goals has always been to get as close as possible to the top and to make it to the Sony Ericsson Championships," said Dementieva. "Making it to Doha just shows me that I've been doing a few things right this season, so I am just very happy about my qualification. I have played very well all year and I will certainly try my best to finish the season on a high note."
In other second round action, sixth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland had little trouble with France's Marion Bartoli, winning in straight sets, 6-2, 6-3.
The 2008 champion at this Tier I hardcourt tournament will collect $196,900. Six of the world's Top-10 women are vying for the top prize.

March Madness odds and printable March Madness brackets
With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
