Tennis Betting Lines

08/23/2010 - Montreal, QC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - U.S. Open runner-up Caroline Wozniacki defeated Wimbledon runner-up Vera Zvonareva to capture the title at the rain- plagued $2 million Rogers Cup event.

The second-seeded Wozniacki whipped the eighth-seeded Zvonareva 6-3, 6-2 in 1 hour, 14 minutes at Uniprix Stadium on Monday. Wozniacki broke Zvonareva's serve four times, while the Russian settled for only one break in the setback.

The final was supposed to be played on Sunday, but rain pushed the schedule back here on both Saturday and Sunday.

Wozniacki is now 2-2 lifetime against Zvonareva, including 1-1 this year. The Russian beat the Dane in a semifinal in Charleston earlier this season.

The world No. 2 Wozniacki, like Zvonareva, also had to play her semifinal match here on Monday, as she blew past 11th-seeded Russian Svetlana Kuznetsova 6-2, 6-3. The Dane was leading 2-0 in the first set when rain forced the suspension of the match here on Saturday.

The two-time major champion Kuznetsova was a titlist in San Diego earlier this month.

Zvonareva, last month's Wimbledon runner-up to world No. 1 Serena Williams, posted a 7-6 (8-6), 1-0 final-four victory over 10th-seeded Belarusian Victoria Azarenka, who retired early in the second set because of a blister problem on her left foot. Azarenka was a titlist in Stanford this month.

The 20-year-old Wozniacki improved to 9-7 in her career finals, including 3-1 this season. Her other 2010 titles came in Ponte Vedra Beach and Copenhagen, in her home nation of Denmark.

Wozniacki was last year's U.S. Open runner-up to Belgian star Kim Clijsters.

The 25-year-old Zvonareva fell to 10-14 in her career WTA Tour finals, including 1-3 this year.

Wozniacki pocketed $350,000 with her latest title.
