07/21/2010 - Portoroz, Slovenia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unseeded Russian Anna Chakvetadze scored a surprise victory in second-round action at the Slovenia Open.

On Wednesday, Chakvetadze dismantled four-seed Italian Sara Errani by a 6-1, 6-2 count in a match that lasted just 58 minutes.

It was a sudden end to the tournament for Errani, who produced a hard-fought straight-set victory against Georgian qualifier Anna Tatishvili on Tuesday.

Slovene Polona Hercog also advances, getting by countrywoman Katarina Srebotnik 6-4, 6-7 (3-7), 6-3 on the hardcourts. Hercog will have to take down Stefanie Voegele of Switzerland, who downed Austrian Tamira Paszek by a 7-5, 6-4 result.

In other action, sixth-seed Vera Dushevina of Russia dispatched unranked Virginie Razzano of France 4-6, 7-5, 6-2. Dushevina's road to the next round doesn't get any easier, as she faces a showdown with Chakvetadze.

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.

Current betting odds Heisman trophy are:

Brady Quinn (QB, Notre Dame)
Adrian Peterson (RB, Oklahoma)
Troy Smith (QB, Ohio State)
