Wozniacki tops Zvonareva in Montreal finale
Tennis Betting Lines
08/23/2010 -
Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - U.S. Open runner-up Caroline Wozniacki
defeated Wimbledon runner-up Vera Zvonareva to capture the title at the rain-
plagued $2 million Rogers Cup event.
The second-seeded Wozniacki whipped the eighth-seeded Zvonareva 6-3, 6-2 in 1
hour, 14 minutes at Uniprix Stadium on Monday. Wozniacki broke Zvonareva's
serve four times, while the Russian settled for only one break in the setback.
The final was supposed to be played on Sunday, but rain pushed the schedule
back here on both Saturday and Sunday.
Wozniacki is now 2-2 lifetime against Zvonareva, including 1-1 this year. The
Russian beat the Dane in a semifinal in Charleston earlier this season.
The world No. 2 Wozniacki, like Zvonareva, also had to play her semifinal
match here on Monday, as she blew past 11th-seeded Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova
6-2, 6-3. The Dane was leading 2-0 in the first set when rain forced the
suspension of the match here on Saturday.
The two-time major champion Kuznetsova was a titlist in San Diego earlier this
month.
Zvonareva, last month's Wimbledon runner-up to world No. 1 Serena Williams,
posted a 7-6 (8-6), 1-0 final-four victory over 10th-seeded Belarusian
Victoria Azarenka, who retired early in the second set because of a blister
problem on her left foot. Azarenka was a titlist in Stanford this month.
The 20-year-old Wozniacki improved to 9-7 in her career finals, including 3-1
this season. Her other 2010 titles came in Ponte Vedra Beach and Copenhagen,
in her home nation of Denmark.
Wozniacki was last year's U.S. Open runner-up to Belgian star Kim Clijsters.
The 25-year-old Zvonareva fell to 10-14 in her career WTA Tour finals,
including 1-3 this year.
Wozniacki pocketed $350,000 with her latest title.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.
NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.
Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.
Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.
Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
