Tennis Betting Lines

02/05/2012 - Stuttgart, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova won her singles match on Sunday and sent the reigning champion Czech Republic into the Fed Cup semifinals for a second straight year.

The Czechs entered Sunday's action with a 2-0 lead over host Germany, and extended their lead to an insurmountable 3-0 advantage when the world No. 2 Kvitova came from behind to beat Sabine Lisicki 6-7 (2-7), 6-4, 6-1 at Stuttgart Arena.

Kvitova has now won her last 27 matches on hardcourts.

Angelique Kerber finally got the Germans on the scoreboard with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Czech Lucie Hradecka in a dead rubber on Day 2.

On Saturday in Stuttgart, Iveta Benesova and Kvitova each won three-set thrillers in the opening singles, as they topped Lisicki and Julia Goerges, respectively.

The Czechs are now 6-1 all-time against Germany, which has captured the Fed Cup twice in its history. The Czechs won last year's crown by beating Russia, 3-2, in the final.

The Czech Republic will face the Italy-Ukraine victor in April's semis.
