Djokovic, Murray land in Cincy quarters

Tennis Betting Lines

08/19/2010 - Mason, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two-time runner-up Novak Djokovic and former champion Andy Murray recorded third-round victories Thursday at the $3 million Western & Southern Financial Group Masters, a U.S. Open Series event.

The second-seeded world No. 3 Djokovic cooled off Argentine star David Nalbandian 6-1, 7-6 (9-7) in 1 hour 37 minutes, while a fourth-seeded Murray came from behind to best talented Latvian Ernests Gulbis 4-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-4) in just over 2 1/2 hours on the hardcourts at the Lindner Family Tennis Center. The oft-injured Nalbandian had won 13 of his previous 14 matches, including a quality title in Washington, D.C. two weeks ago.

Murray, who upset Roger Federer in last week's blockbuster finale at the Canadian Masters event in Toronto and was this year's Australian Open runner- up to the Swiss icon, was the Cincinnati champ two years ago. The British Murray's quarterfinal opponent will be surging American Mardy Fish.

Djokovic has played in the last two Cincy finals, losing to Federer here last year and Murray in '08.

The hot Fish handled former top-10 Frenchman Richard Gasquet 7-5, 6-2 on Day 5. The wild card Fish, who has now won 14 of his last 15 matches, including titles in Newport and Atlanta, was the Cincinnati runner-up back in 2003.

The 2010 Cincinnati titlist will claim $443,500.
