Nadal, Federer will play U.S. Open SF matches Saturday

Tennis Betting Lines

09/10/2010 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - World No. 1 stalwart Rafael Nadal and former top-ranked superstar Roger Federer are on a collision course to meet in Sunday's men's final at the 2010 U.S. Open. The two tennis greats have never met here in New York.

The eight-time major titlist Nadal will face 12th-seeded Russian Mikhail Youzhny, while the second-seeded 16-time Grand Slam titlist Federer will take on third-seeded former U.S. Open runner-up Novak Djokovic at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.

Nadal is 7-4 lifetime against Youzhny, who will appear in his second U.S. Open semifinal in five years. The Spaniard is 3-1 in their career Grand Slam encounters, but the Russian topped Nadal here in the 2006 U.S. Open quarterfinals.

The reigning Wimbledon and French Open champion Nadal needs a U.S. Open title to complete the career Golden Slam, which is all four majors and an Olympic gold medal.

If Nadal, who has yet to drop a set at this '10 fortnight, can capture the title here, he would become just the seventh man in history to complete the career Grand Slam.

Meanwhile, Federer will meet Djokovic for a 16th time, with the super Swiss holding a comfortable 10-5 lifetime advantage, including wins here in New York in each of the previous three years. The Swiss topped the Serb in the 2007 U.S. Open final and the 2008 and 2009 semifinals.

Federer is 4-1 overall versus the former Aussie Open champion Djokovic in Grand Slam competition.

The 29-year-old Federer has played in the last six U.S. Open finals, including a loss against Juan Martin del Potro here a year ago. The reigning Aussie Open champ captured five straight U.S. Open championships from 2004-08.

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
