Dominika Cibulkova, seeded 17th, leveled fellow Slovak Magdalena Rybarikova 6-3, 6-1, 18th-seeded two-time Grand Slam champion Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia edged out South African Chanelle Scheepers 6-3, 3-6, 6-0, and 21st- seeded former world No. 1 and 2008 Aussie Open runner-up Ana Ivanovic of Serbia dismissed Spaniard Lourdes Dominguez Lino 6-0, 6-3.

 

Other seeded victors on Day 2 were No. 23 Italian Roberta Vinci; No. 25 Estonian Kaia Kanepi; No. 27 Russian Maria Kirilenko; No. 29 Russian Nadia Petrova; and No. 30 German Angelique Kerber. Kanepi was a titlist in Brisbane two weeks ago.

 

The former U.S. Open runner-up Wozniacki will take on Georgian Anna Tatishvili; Azarenka will encounter Aussie Casey Dellacqua; Li will meet Aussie Olivia Rogowska; and the four-time Grand Slam champion Clijsters will battle France's Stephanie Foretz Gacon.

 

Clijsters beat Li in last year's Aussie finale.

 

Melbourne, Australia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Bidding to win his third straight major, defending champion and world No. 1 Novak Djokovic of Serbia eased through his first-round match Tuesday at the Australian Open. Meanwhile, the man he beat in last year's final, Andy Murray, needed to rally from a first-set loss to win his opening match.

 

Meanwhile, a fourth-seeded Murray, who lost in straight sets to Djokovic in last year's Aussie final, needed four sets to down promising American Ryan Harrison, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-2.

 

And American Andy Roddick, a four-time Aussie semifinalist who is seeded 15th at this particular fortnight, had little trouble in a 6-3, 6-4, 6-1 win over Dutchman Robin Haase.

 

"It took me, you know, a couple games to get into the right rhythm," Djokovic said. "It's a bit difficult conditions. I think it was really the hottest day since I've arrived here, so I'm trying to get used to that."

 

Still, Djokovic bounced back to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open and owns four career Grand Slam titles, including his first Aussie championship back in 2008.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)

Broncos -3.5 @ Bills +3.5

Chiefs -1 @ Texans +1

Dolphins +3 @ Redskins -3

Patriots -5 @ Jets +5

Eagles -3.5 @ Packers +3.5

Steelers -4 @ Browns +4

Titans +6 @ Jaguars -6

Bears +6 @ Chargers -6

Lions +3 @ Raiders -3

Bucs +6.5 @ Seahawks -6.5

Giants +4 @ Cowboys -4

Ravens +3 @ Bengals -3

Cardinals +3 @ 49ers -3

 Super Bowl line (2008)
