Tennis Betting Lines
02/16/2012 - San Jose, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Andy Roddick was taken to three sets by fellow American Denis Kudla Wednesday before ultimately prevailing 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (7-5), 6-4 in second-round action at the $531,000 SAP Open.
Third-seeded Milos Raonic of Canada, the reigning champion, also moved into the quarterfinals with 6-2, 7-6 (9-7) win over Tobias Kamke of Germany on the hardcourts at HP Pavilion.
The second-seeded Roddick, a three-time San Jose champion (2004-05, 2008), lost his first service game in the third set -- the first break of the match -- before earning two breaks of his own to win the two-hour, 42-minute affair.
Earlier Wednesday, top-seeded Gael Monfils of France withdrew from the tournament with a right knee injury. He will also skip out on the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships in Memphis, Tennessee scheduled to be played February 20-26.
Lucky loser Blake Strode will take Monfils' spot in the San Jose draw.
There were also four first-round matches on Wednesday.
Sixth-seeded Frenchman Julien Benneteau converted just two of his 16 break point opportunities and dropped both break points against him, but he grinded out a 7-6 (7-3), 7-6 (7-5) win over American Ryan Sweeting. Benneteau won on the hardcourts at Apia International Sydney in January.
Uzbekistan's Denis Istomin drove out American Sam Querrey 5-7, 6-3, 7-5. The former top-20 performer Querrey fired 15 aces in defeat.
In other opening-round action, American Ryan Harrison upset eighth-seeded Belgian Olivier Rochus 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 and Aussie Matthew Ebden outlasted Israeli Dudi Sela 6-7 (7-9), 6-2, 7-6 (7-1).
The 2012 SAP Open champ will earn $95,860.

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.
