Tennis Betting Lines

Dominika Cibulkova, seeded 17th, leveled fellow Slovak Magdalena Rybarikova 6-3, 6-1, 18th-seeded two-time Grand Slam champion Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia edged out South African Chanelle Scheepers 6-3, 3-6, 6-0, and 21st- seeded former world No. 1 and 2008 Aussie Open runner-up Ana Ivanovic of Serbia dismissed Spaniard Lourdes Dominguez Lino 6-0, 6-3.

 

Several other women reached the round of 64, including Israeli Shahar Peer, Americans Vania King and Sloane Stephens, Canadian Aleksandra Wozniak, Chinese Zheng Jie, and Aussie favorite Jelena Dokic, who drubbed Russian and fellow former top-10 star Anna Chakvetadze 6-2, 6-1. Zheng drilled American Madison Keys 6-2, 6-1, while King defeated Ukrainian Kateryna Bondarenko 7-6 (7-3), 6-3 and Stephens stopped Spaniard Silvia Soler-Espinosa 6-4, 6-2.

 

The second round will get underway on Wednesday, including matches for world No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki, third-seeded Victoria Azarenka, fifth-seeded 2011 Aussie Open runner-up and French Open champion Li Na and 11th-seeded reigning Melbourne titlist Kim Clijsters.

 

Clijsters beat Li in last year's Aussie finale.

 

The 24-year-old Djokovic lost two of the first three games to Italy's Paolo Lorenzi, then won a whopping 17 in a row to finish off a commanding 6-2, 6-0, 6-0 win at the season's first Grand Slam event.

 

The three-time Grand Slam finalist Murray has been the Melbourne runner-up the last two years. He'll meet Frenchman Edouard Roger-Vasselin on Thursday.

 

Roddick's second-round opponent will be long-time rival and fellow former No. 1 Lleyton Hewitt.

 

"It took me, you know, a couple games to get into the right rhythm," Djokovic said. "It's a bit difficult conditions. I think it was really the hottest day since I've arrived here, so I'm trying to get used to that."

 

Still, Djokovic bounced back to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open and owns four career Grand Slam titles, including his first Aussie championship back in 2008.

 

He is trying to become only the fourth player on the men's side to win three or more Australian Open titles in the Open era (since 1968).

 

The powerful Djokovic has won 33 of his last 35 Grand Slam matches, dating back to the 2010 U.S. Open.
