Tennis Betting Lines

03/17/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Lloyd has stepped down at Britain's Davis Cup captain.

The Brits have lost their last five ties, with its' most-recent one being an embarrassing setback at the hands of Lithuania. World No. 4 Andy Murray, the only Brit ranked inside the world's top 100, did not play against the Lithuanians, who have only three world-ranked players, all of whom are teenagers.

Britain will next host Turkey in a relegation playoff, which its needs to win in order to avoid dropping into Europe/Africa zone Group III.

The 55-year-old Lloyd is a former Davis Cup player, reached the Australian Open final in 1977, and was once married to women's tennis great Chris Evert.

Britain owns nine Davis Cup titles, but has appeared in only one World Group final (1978) since 1937.

MySportsbook.com Posts Heisman Trophy Odds

With 3,919 passing yards, 32 touchdowns and a mere seven interceptions last season, combined with a powerful South Bend Heisman legacy, odds makers at MySportsbook.com have given Notre Dame senior quarterback Brady Quinn the best Heisman Trophy odds at 5-2.

Quinn isn’t the only big man on campus this season.  Oklahoma junior running back and 2004 Heisman runner-up Adrian Peterson, listed at 7-2, rushed for a combined 3,033 yards in his first two years as a college player and will give Quinn a run for his money. 

This online sportsbook has also listed Troy Smith, Ohio State senior quarterback, as another strong favorite to win the 72nd Heisman Trophy.  A 7-1 bet, Smith threw for 2,282 yards last season and also led the Buckeyes to a convincing 34-20 victory over Quinn and the Fighting Irish in last season’s Fiesta Bowl.
