Bartoli out, Garbin moves on in Mexico

Tennis Betting Lines

03/01/2007 - Acapulco, Mexico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Marion Bartoli was a second- round victim at the $180,000 Abierto Mexicano Telcel tennis tournament.

Bartoli was swept in the first set in a 6-0, 6-4 defeat at the hands of Julia Schruff. Second-seeded Tathiana Garbin needed just over one set before Zsofia Gubacsi retired in a 6-4, 3-0 win. Garbin is keeping the momentum from a runner-up finish in Bogota last week.

In other action, sixth-seeded Gisela Dulko needed a pair of tiebreaks to down Laura Pous Tio 7-6 (7-2), 7-6 (9-7), but fourth-seeded Severine Bremond wasn't as lucky in dropping a 7-6 (7-3), 6-2 decision to France's Alize Cornet at The Fairmont Acapulco Princess.

France's Emilie Loit upended third-seeded German Martina Muller 6-2, 6-2, while fifth-seeded Italian Flavia Pennetta avoided an upset by cooling off her countrywoman Roberta Vinci 6-0, 6-2. Vinci had won her last six matches, including the title run last week in Bogota.

Pennetta was last year's Acapulco runner-up to German Anna-Lena Groenefeld, who titled here in 2005 and was also the runner-up here in 2004.

Sara Errani rallied for a 1-6, 6-3, 6-4 win over Kaia Kanepi and Melissa Torres Sandoval breezed into the third round with a 6-4, 6-2 victory over Eva Birnerova.

The 2007 winner here will claim $25,845.

What is most impressive with this group is their balance; the five starters all average between 10.7 and 13.6 PPG. The Gators have been on an absolute roll having won 15 straight by an average of 16.4 PPG.

Right behind the Gators are the 5th ranked UNC Tar Heels at 9-2. The Heels (21-3, 7-2) are absolutely loaded with top notch talent and are as deep as any team in the country.
