Martinez Sanchez downs Jankovic for Rome crown

Tennis Betting Lines

05/08/2010 - Rome, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unseeded Spaniard Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez finished off her stellar run of tennis at the $2 million Italian Masters on Saturday, defeating Jelena Jankovic in a long straight-sets final.

Martinez Sanchez took the 7-6 (7-5), 7-5 victory in this clay-court French Open tune-up in a little under 2 1/2 hours. It is her first title of the season and the third of her career -- Martinez Sanchez was the champion at Bogota and Bastad last year.

The 27-year-old's win over Jankovic came after a semifinal victory over Ana Ivanovic, a quarterfinal triumph over Lucie Safarova, a third-round takeout of second-seeded Caroline Wozniacki, and a second-round defeat of No. 13 seed Francesca Schiavone.

Jankovic, meanwhile, was looking for her third title here, and gained a berth in the final after her comeback win over Serena Williams in the semis. That match, in which Jankovic staved off a match point, lasted a little under three hours. However, the Serbian fell just short Saturday.

Jankovic won 59 percent of her first serve points against Martinez Sanchez, a serve-and-volley specialist who recorded a first-serve percentage of just 50 but won 76 percent of her first serve points.

Martinez Sanchez has won two of her three career matchups with Jankovic.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
