Berdych into Miami semisTennis Betting Lines04/01/2010 - Key Biscayne, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Big Czech Tomas Berdych was a hard- fought quarterfinal winner Thursday at the $4.5 million Sony Ericsson Open, an ATP World Tour Masters event. The 16th-seeded Berdych came from behind to beat 10th-seeded Spanish lefthander Fernando Verdasco 4-6, 7-6 (7-5), 6-4 on the hardcourts at Crandon Park. The capable Berdych stunned world No. 1 superstar Roger Federer in the fourth round here on Tuesday night. Verdasco appeared to be in control here on Day 9, up a set and leading 3-1 in the second, but Berdych was able to turn the match around. The inconsistent Czech pushed the second set into a tiebreak, which he basically controlled, and recorded the first service break of the third set to take a 4-3 lead in the final stanza. Berdych prevailed after 2 hours, 51 minutes of action with one final forehand winner. Verdasco hurt his own cause with six double faults in the disappointing setback. The 24-year-old Berdych will now appear in his fifth career Masters semifinal (1-3). He won a Masters title in Paris in 2005. The 6-foot-5 Berdych will meet the Robin Soderling-Mikhail Youzhny victor here on Friday. The fifth-seeded Soderling was last year's French Open runner-up to Federer. Youzhny is seeded 13th at this lucrative 12-day tournament. The other semifinal was determined here on Wednesday, as former world No. 1s Rafael Nadal and Andy Roddick will do battle on Friday. The sixth-seeded Roddick titled here in 2004, while the fourth-seeded Nadal was the Miami runner-up in 2005 and 2008. Roddick was the runner-up at the Masters event at Indian Wells two weeks ago. The newest champion here will collect $605,500.
