Tennis Betting Lines

07/24/2010 - Atlanta, GA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Second-seeded American John Isner advanced to the final of the Atlanta Tennis Championships after defeating Kevin Anderson in three sets.

Isner will have an opportunity for his second career title against Mardy Fish, who upset top-seeded Andy Roddick 7-6 (7-5), 6-3.

The tall American Isner, who famously played the longest match in tennis history at Wimbledon this year, notched a 6-3, 6-7 (7-9), 6-3 win over Anderson in 2 1/2 hours. Isner squandered a match point in the second set at 7-6 in the tiebreaker, but broke Anderson at 4-3 in the third set to help wrap up the victory.

Fish, meanwhile, notched only his second career win over Roddick in 11 tries. He had not beaten his American counterpart since 2003 and had lost the last nine matchups. Fish will be going for his fifth career title and second this year against Isner.

The winner of the tournament will receive $95,845.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
