Wozniacki rolls into third round in Flushing

Tennis Betting Lines

09/02/2010 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Caroline Wozniacki was an easy second-round winner Thursday at the 2010 U.S. Open.

The 2009 runner-up Wozniacki double-bageled Taipei's Kai-Chen Chang 6-0, 6-0 in a mere 47 minutes at Ashe Stadium.

Wozniacki lost to former world No. 1 Kim Clijsters in last year's U.S. Open finale.

The second-ranked 20-year-old Wozniacki became the top seed here when world No. 1 superstar Serena Williams pulled out last week, citing a foot surgery.

"It's nice to be the No. 1 seed, and, you know, it's nice to play at the big stadium," Wozniacki said. "It's a great atmosphere. I'm just happy to be through to the third round."

Wozniacki's third-round opponent will be another player from Taipei, Yung-Jan Chan.

Seventh-seeded Wimbledon runner-up Vera Zvonareva and 11th-seeded former U.S. Open titlist Svetlana Kuznetsova were a pair of seeded Russian victors on Day 4 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Zvonareva got past big- serving German Sabine Lisicki 6-1, 7-6 (7-5), while the two-time major champion Kuznetsova continued her recent resurgence with a 6-2, 6-3 spanking of Latvian Anastasija Sevastova. Kuznetsova captured the year's final Grand Slam event back in 2004 and was the runner-up here in 2007. Zvonareva lost to the mighty Williams in July's Wimbledon finale.

Belgian slugger Yanina Wickmayer, the 15th seed here, handled German Julia Goerges 6-4, 7-5 to improve to 7-1 in her last eight matches in Flushing. Wickmayer was a surprise semifinalist here a year ago.

In some upsets, 18-year-old American Beatrice Capra upended 18th-seeded Frenchwoman Aravane Rezai 7-5, 2-6, 6-3, while Swiss veteran Patty Schnyder topped 22nd-seeded Spaniard Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez 7-6 (7-2), 6-4.

Additional second-round wins came for Spaniard Lourdes Dominguez Lino, Slovakian Dominika Cibulkova and the aforementioned Chan.
