Tennis Betting Lines

06/18/2007 - 's-Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Second-seeded Croat Ivan Ljubicic highlighted Monday's first-round winners at the grass-court Ordina Open, a final Wimbledon tune-up.

Ljubicic came from behind to beat Frenchman Gael Monfils 3-6, 6-3, 6-0 at Autotron Rosmalen. The big-serving Croat will meet Italian Andreas Seppi in the second round here.

The Dutch faithful were treated to a win when veteran Peter Wessels, a qualifier this week, doused Frenchman Nicolas Devilder 6-4, 6-3.

In other action, Belgian Kristof Vliegen topped veteran Frenchman Fabrice Santoro 6-3, 1-1, French qualifier Antony Dupuis stopped Dutch wild card Thiemo De Bakker 7-5, 7-6 (7-1) and the aforementioned Seppi handled Austrian Alexander Peya 6-4, 6-4. Santoro retired because of a stomach problem.

A pair of matches were suspended because of rain, as sixth-seeded Argentine Juan Ignacio Chela was tied with Frenchman Julien Benneteau 2-2 and Thai Danai Udomchoke was leading Czech lucky-loser Lukas Dlouhy 2-1 when play was halted for the day.

This week's top seed is Spaniard Tommy Robredo. Croat Mario Ancic defeated Czech Jan Hernych in last year's finale here. The reigning two-time champion Ancic is not defending his titles this week.

Wimbledon will commence next Monday at the All England Club.
