Tennis Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - Bree, Belgium (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tomas Berdych and Radek Stepanek overpowered a pair of Belgians on Friday, as the Czech Republic ran out to a 2-0 lead in a Davis Cup best-of-five first-round affair in Bree.

Berdych blitzed Olivier Rochus 6-3, 6-0, 6-4 and Stepanek handled Xavier Malisse 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3) on an indoor hardcourt at Bree's Expodroom.

The Czechs will look to advance to the quarterfinals with a doubles win on Saturday, when they will send out Lukas Dlouhy and Jan Hajek to face a Belgian pairing of Rochus and Steve Darcis.

Team Czech Republic is captained by Jaroslav Navratil, while Belgium is guided by Reginald Willems.

The Czechs, who won the Davis Cup as Czechoslovakia behind the great Ivan Lendl 30 years ago, are 7-3 all-time against the Belgians.

The winner here will meet the Chile-Israel victor in July.
