Tennis Betting Lines

07/09/2010 - Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Friday's opening singles winners in the best-of-five Davis Cup quarterfinal between visiting Argentina and host Russia were David Nalbandian and Mikhail Youzhny, respectively.

The oft-injured former Wimbledon runner-up Nalbandian got the Argentines on the board first by straight-setting world No. 6 Nikolay Davdyenko 6-4, 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (8-6) on the indoor hardcourt at Moscow's Olympic Stadium. The capable former top-five star Nalbandian prevailed in 2 hours, 47 minutes on Day 1.

The 14th-ranked Youzhny then leveled the tie for Russia with a comprehensive 6-3, 6-1, 6-4 victory over Leonardo Mayer. The uneventful bout was over in 2 hours, 7 minutes, as Mayer was unable to break Youzhny's serve, while the Russian tallied five breaks in 13 Mayer service games.

Saturday's pivotal doubles rubber will pit a Russian duo of Teimuraz Gabashvili and Igor Kunitysn against an Argentine duo of Nalbandian and Horacio Zeballos, while Sunday's reverse singles currently pit Davydenko against Mayer and Youzhny versus Nalbandian.

Team Russia is captained by long-time skipper Shamil Tarpischev, while the Argentines are led by Tito Vazquez, who also has Eduardo Schwank at his disposal this weekend.

Russia is 3-2 all-time versus Argentina, including a home victory in the final here back in 2006. The Russians captured their first Davis Cup title back in 2002.

Snake-bitten Argentina is still seeking its first-ever championship in this storied sporting event. The Argentines are three-time runners-up.

The winner here will face two-time defending champion Spain or France in September's semifinals.
