08/16/2007 - Mason, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Reigning champion Andy Roddick came up a third- round loser Thursday at the $2.45 million Western & Southern Financial Group Masters -- the seventh of nine ATP Masters Series events this season.
Sixteenth-seeded Spaniard David Ferrer doused the third-seeded Roddick in 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 fashion on the hardcourts at the Lindner Family Tennis Center.
Roddick hadn't faced a break point all day against Ferrer until the final game of the match, at which time the Spaniard converted to dismiss the powerful American in 1 hour, 25 minutes. The big-serving Roddick notched nine aces on Day 4, as did the gritty Ferrer.
The former top-ranked Roddick beat Spaniard Juan Carlos Ferrero in last year's Western & Southern finale, also captured this event in 2003 and was the 2005 runner-up here to the great Roger Federer.
Roddick was a hardcourt titlist in Washington, DC just two weeks ago.
A pair of former world No. 1s managed to join the parade into the quarterfinals, as Spaniard Carlos Moya held off Argentine qualifier Juan Martin del Potro 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, while Aussie Lleyton Hewitt humbled Austrian Jurgen Melzer 6-3, 6-3. Moya and Hewitt will square off in Friday's quarterfinals.
The former French Open champion Moya beat Hewitt in the 2002 finale here. The two-time major titlist Hewitt also finished as the Cincy runner-up in 2004.
In other third-round action on Day 4, American hopeful Sam Querrey bested Argentine Juan Monaco 6-3, 7-5 and Spaniard Nicolas Almagro erased Finn Jarkko Nieminen 6-2, 6-2.
This week's winner will pocket $400,000.

Let’s take a look at the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds and the betting line and figure out where they’ve been and where they are going to go.
MySportsbook.com put up the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds late on Sunday night with the Pittsburgh Steelers favored by 6.5 points and a total betting line at 47.5 points.
Since then, however, the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds have seen a good deal of movement and you’ll want to be on top of where they are likely to move to make sure you get the best line value for the big game.
Since opening, the Super Bowl 2009 betting lines went to Steelers -7 in the span of roughly 3 hours but were quickly bought back down just minutes later to 6.5 again.
After that is took about 5-6 more hours before the betting line went back to -7 where it has sat for a while now and is likely to remain. The opening betting total of 47.5 was bet down right after the line became available and went to 47 within minutes.
Roughly a day later it has been bet even further down to the 46.5 tally it currently is set at.
Roughly 60% of gamblers seem to be on the Cardinals here so the point spread will be bet down and a 7.5 would not last very long at all with many taking the early 6.5 in hopes of finding a potential middle in the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds.
If you like Arizona and see a 7.5, I’d take it as soon as possible because it’s unlikely to last. For Pittsburgh backers, the -7 might be the best you’ll be able to find but a 6.5 is definitely possible close to game time.
Regarding the Super Bowl 2009 betting odds for the total, most tracked gamblers are already on the over and with those who took the under 47.5 already securing a middle on the over 46.5, the only way I see it moving is back up to 47 so if you like the over, I’d recommend betting now.

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
Here are the football odds as seen at MySportsbook.com and subject to change after February 10, 2007 if not locked in prior to that date.
