Newport, Rhode Island – There is no question tennis gambling action on offer at BetUS.

Tennis Betting Line: Vincent Spadea +175 Nicolas Mahut -225

Match Time: 11:00 AM Eastern Time, Thursday, July 10, 2008

Tennis Prediction: This is the first-ever career meeting between the pair in ATP level play. American Vincent Spadea (No. 100), although disadvantaged on the money line, will be the crowd favourite in Newport. The 33-year-old veteran enjoyed a run into the quarterfinal of Nottingham last month. Although he fell in the opening round of Wimbledon, in lesser events he does enjoy modestly better results. Overall, he is 7-13 for the year.

No. 69 Nicolas Mahut of France has seesawed with mixed results this year. Interspersed in between some solid runs are first round exits. In his last two events, he crashed out of the opening round – Nottingham and Stella Artois Championships. He brought a 2-3 record for the season on grass to Newport. Overall, he is 11-16 for the year.

Tennis Betting Line: Aisam ul Haq Qureshi +140 Fabrice Santoro -180

Match Time: 11:00 AM Eastern Time, Thursday, July 10, 2008

Tennis Prediction: The 36-year-old Frenchman, Farbrice Santoro is on his farewell tour. This is his last season on the main circuit. He brings a 10-12 record for the season to Newport and received second seed. While he is considered a veteran by most, he is still a great player. Never underestimate the one they call “The Magician”. Tricky, versatile and an exceptional playmaker he is always a delight to watch and bet on. For me this pick is a sentimental one.

Tennis Free Picks: Santoro in straight sets

Tennis Betting Line: Donald Young -130 Alexander Peya -110

Match Time: 11:00 AM Eastern Time, Thursday, July 10, 2008

Tennis Prediction: American teenager Donald Young has long been touted as one of American’s bright hopes for the future. “Future” the key word, this season, the No.93 Young has yet to enjoy a breakthrough moment. However, he enters this tournament as the sixth seed.

No.181 Alexander Peya has coasted under the radar in the lower circuit, where he has enjoyed his best results – two runner-up finishes in hard court tournaments. In ATP level play, Peya notched his first win when he beat Philipp Petzschner in the first round in three sets.

Young holds home court edge. High expectations rest on his young shoulders at this minor tournament. Should he live up to the expectations he has a chance to reach his second quarterfinal of the year.
