Tennis Betting Lines

07/22/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top seed Andy Roddick lost a second set tiebreaker, but managed to pull out the final set to advance to the quarterfinals of the Atlanta Tennis Championships.

Roddick needed less than a half-hour to take the first set and broke fellow American Rajeev Ram's serve twice in the third to come away with a 6-1, 6-7 (1-7), 6-3 victory.

Also advancing past the second round was seventh-seeded Xavier Malisse of Belgium, who downed Ukraine's Illya Marchenko, 6-3, 6-3.

This is the first year since 2001 that Atlanta has held an ATP World Tour tournament. That year the tournament was held in late April on clay and an 18- year-old Roddick defeated Malisse in the final.

Third seed Lleyton Hewitt battles Slovakia's Lukas Lacko and South African Kevin Anderson goes against American Donald Young in other second-round action on Thursday.

The tournament winner will receive $95,845.
