Tennis Betting Lines

07/19/2010 - Bad Gastein, Austria (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Ioana Raluca Olaru of Romania was among the first-round winners Monday at the Gastein Ladies tennis tournament.

Olaru rallied for a 1-6, 6-4, 6-3 victory over Germany's Kathrin Woerle on the red clay. She was the runner-up at this event last year, losing to Andrea Petkovic of Germany in her first career WTA Tour final.

Petkovic is this year's top seed and will take on Iveta Benesova of the Czech Republic in her first-round match.

It's been a difficult year for Olaru, as she hasn't been past the second round in any tournament. She lost to eventual champ Kaia Kanepi in the second round of last week's event in Palermo.

Also winning on Monday's limited schedule were France's Alize Cornet, Simona Halep of Romania and Mariya Koryttseva of the Ukraine.

Cornet breezed past Arantxa Rus of Holland with a 6-2, 6-0 rout, while Halep toppled Renata Voracova of the Czech Republic, 7-5, 6-2. Koryttseva gutted out a 6-7 (2-7), 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 win over Germany's Tatjana Malek.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday.

"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
