Tennis Betting Lines

07/08/2010 - New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The 2010 U.S. Open will offer the richest purse in tennis history, at over $22.6 million, with the singles winners pocketing at least $1.7 million apiece.

The overall prize money is up $1 million from last year, when Argentine Juan Martin del Potro and Belgian Kim Clijsters took home the titles, and plenty of cash.

This year's singles champs can make an additional $1 million, or bonus money from the U.S. Open Series, which is a 10-tournament stretch linked to the year's final Grand Slam event.

The U.S. Open will commence August 30 and end September 12.

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."
