06/19/2007 - 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - French Open runner- up Ana Ivanovic of Serbia and 2006 's-Hertogenbosch finalist Dinara Safina of Russia were among Tuesday's winners at the $175,000 Ordina Open, a final grass-court Wimbledon tune-up.
The second-seeded Ivanovic got past Greek Eleni Daniilidou 7-6 (7-4), 6-2 in second-round action at Autotron Rosmalen, while a fourth-seeded Safina held off French qualifier Camille Pin 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 in opening-round play. Safina was last year's runner-up here to heavy Dutch crowd favorite Michaella Krajicek, and the two women will square off in a rematch on Wednesday.
Third-seeded Russian Anna Chakvetadze reached the quarterfinals by besting Italian Francesca Schiavone 6-4, 7-6 (7-3), while fifth-seeded Slovakian Daniela Hantuchova moved into the second round by dousing Russian Olga Poutchkova 6-2, 6-1. Hantuchova's second-round opponent will be hot American Meghann Shaughnessy, who's fresh off her clay-court title in Barcelona and is currently riding a six-match winning streak.
Also moving into the quarterfinals were eighth-seeded Ukrainian Alona Bondarenko and Italian Flavia Pennetta, as Bondarenko edged out Italian Roberta Vinci 7-6 (7-4), 6-3, while Pennetta handled German qualifier Tatjana Malek 6-0, 6-4.
Other first-round winners on Day 3 were American Meilen Tu and German Angelique Kerber. Tu is rewarded with a second-round match against top-seeded Serbian Jelena Jankovic, who is fresh off her grass-court title in Birmingham last week and soared into the French Open semis two weeks ago.

Super Bowl XLIII isn't even a week old yet and oddsmakers have already released Super Bowl XLIV odds.
Despite the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl 43, the New England Patriots are 8/1 favorites to win Super Bowl 44.
Bet Super Bowl XLIV Future Odds
With their 27-23 victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII, the Steelers became the latest NFL champion. But believe it or not, oddsmakers from online sports book MySportsbook.com don't have the Steelers the favorites to win Super Bowl XLIV next season.
That honor belongs to the New England Patriots, who are 8/1 favorites to win despite not even qualify for the postseason in 2008. The Pats also have a major decision to make regarding what to do with Matt Cassel, who played well in Tom Brady's (knee surgery) absence last year but is also a free agent this offseason.
Ironically, the Steelers aren't even oddsmakers second choice to win Super Bowl 44, as the Dallas Cowboys are listed right behind the Patriots at 9/1 despite not making the playoffs themselves. Clearly oddsmakers think the public will hop back on the Cowboys' bandwagon considering the immense talent they have and the opening of a brand new stadium.
After Dallas, then comes Pittsburgh at 10/1, but they share those odds with the New York Giants, who won Super Bowl XLII. The Indianapolis Colts and San Diego Chargers round out the top six teams at 12/1, while the Baltimore Ravens (14/1), Tennessee Titans (16/1), Carolina Panthers (18/1) and Philadelphia Eagles (18/1) complete the top 10.
The NFC Champion Arizona Cardinals got no love from oddsmakers as they were established as a 30/1 long shot to win next year's Super Bowl. They share those same odds with the Chicago Bears and Tampa Bay Buccaneers – two teams that didn't even qualify for the postseason. Other long shots are the Kansas City Chiefs (100/1), Detroit Lions (100/1), St. Louis Rams (75/1) and Oakland Raiders (75/1).
To see a complete list of all the team's odds to win Super Bowl XLIV, check below.

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.
Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.
MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.
"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."
Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
