Zvonareva reaches Wimbledon final

Tennis Betting Lines

07/01/2010 - Wimbledon, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Russian Vera Zvonareva landed in her first career Grand Slam final on Thursday by overcoming upstart Bulgarian Tsvetana Pironkova in semifinal action at Wimbledon 2010.

The 21st-seeded Zvonareva's opponent on Saturday will be world No. 1 and defending champion Serena Williams or unseeded Czech lefthander Petra Kvitova.

Zvonareva, who headed to this fortnight as an 80-to-1 longshot to win the title, started slow against Pironkova before rebounding for a 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 decision on Centre Court at the All England Club. The 22-year-old Pironkova shocked five-time champion Venus Williams in the quarterfinals here on Tuesday.

In the first set on Thursday, the surprising Pironkova broke Zvonareva for a 4-2 lead and then cruised to victory in the stanza to stun her Russian counterpart. Zvonareva, however, fought back in the second, as she broke Pironkova for a 4-2 lead en route to an easy set victory herself.

The third set was all Zvonareva, who broke the Bulgarian to open the stanza, and broke again for a commanding 4-1 advantage. The Russian would wind up converting on her second match point when she swatted an unreturnable forehand winner to advance after 1 hour, 46 minutes of tennis.

Zvonareva tallied 31 winners and broke Pironkova on three occasions, compared to only one break for the capable Bulgarian.

The 25-year-old Zvonareva is now 1-1 lifetime against Pironkova, who topped the former top-10 Russian in Zvonareva's native Moscow last season.

The 82nd-ranked Pironkova had never before advanced past the second round in a major tournament before her unprecedented run here.

Zvonareva is 10-12 in her career WTA Tour finals, including a title in Charleston and a runner-up finish in Pattaya City this season.

Since the 2004 French Open, at least one Russian woman has reached 12 of the last 26 Grand Slam finals. The last time a Russian reached the Wimbledon final was Maria Sharapova, who won it, back in 2004.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
