Szavay stays hot; Dulgheru pulls out in Prague

Tennis Betting Lines

07/15/2010 - Prague, Czech Republic (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Last week's Budapest titlist Agnes Szavay was among Thursday's second-round winners, while second-seeded Alexandra Dulgheru of Romania pulled out of the draw at the $220,000 Prague Open tennis event.

The seventh-seeded Szavay handled long-time Czech crowd favorite Iveta Benesova 6-1, 7-5 on the red clay at Stvanice. The Hungarian Szavay piled up six service breaks in the 1-hour, 12-minute affair.

Szavay bested Swiss veteran Patty Schnyder in last week's Budapest finale for the second time in two years.

The 31-year-old Schnyder also won in Prague on Thursday by pasting France's Alize Cornet 6-2, 6-1.

Dulgheru, meanwhile, pulled out of her scheduled second-rounder against Slovenian Polona Hercog, citing some sore knees. Top-seeded Czech favorite Lucie Safarova pulled out of the draw here on Wednesday because of a hamstring problem.

In other second-round action on Day 4, fifth-seeded Spaniard Anabel Medina Garrigues whipped Colombian qualifier Catalina Castano 6-4, 6-2 and Czech Lucie Hradecka landed in the quarterfinals with a 6-1, 6-2 dismantling of Romanian Monica Niculescu.

Friday's quarters will pit Medina Garrigues, the highest seed still standing here, against Hradecka, Szavay versus Hercog, eighth-seeded Czech Barbora Zahlavova Strycova against Swede Johanna Larsson, and Schnyder versus Georgian Anna Tatishvili.
