Tennis Betting Lines
07/15/2010 -
Bastad, Sweden (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Second-seeded Spaniard Fernando Verdasco
and two-time champion Tommy Robredo of Spain were among Thursday's second-
round winners at the Swedish Open. Fourth-seeded Nicolas Almagro was also a
Spanish victor here on Day 4.
The southpaw Verdasco reached the quarterfinals here for a third straight year
by drilling France's Stephane Robert 6-1, 6-1, while a fifth-seeded Robredo
came from behind to beat Kazakhstan's Andrey Golubev 3-6, 6-3, 6-2 on the red
clay at Bastad Tennis Stadium. Verdasco and Robredo will square off in an all-
Spanish quarterfinal showdown on Friday.
Robredo is seeking his third title here in five years, having won Bastad
championships in 2006 and 2008.
Almagro, meanwhile, handled veteran Finn Jarkko Nieminen 6-4, 6-4 to setup a
round-of-eight affair with Croatian qualifier Franco Skugor, a 6-2, 6-3 winner
against Swedish qualifier Ervin Eleskovic. The 22-year-old Skugor will appear
in his first-ever ATP-level quarterfinal on Friday.
The other quarters will pit top-seeded Swedish stalwart Robin Soderling
against Italian Andreas Seppi and third-seeded Spaniard David Ferrer versus
Uruguay's Pablo Cuevas. The reigning Bastad titlist and two-time French Open
runner-up Soderling topped Argentine Juan Monaco in last year's finale here.
Ferrer, who leads the ATP with 30 clay-court wins this season, was the Bastad
titlist in 2007.
