09/02/2010 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Caroline Wozniacki was an easy second-round winner Thursday at the 2010 U.S. Open.
The 2009 runner-up Wozniacki double-bageled Taipei's Kai-Chen Chang 6-0, 6-0 in a mere 47 minutes at Ashe Stadium.
Wozniacki lost to former world No. 1 Kim Clijsters in last year's U.S. Open finale.
The second-ranked 20-year-old Wozniacki became the top seed here when world No. 1 superstar Serena Williams pulled out last week, citing a foot surgery.
"It's nice to be the No. 1 seed, and, you know, it's nice to play at the big stadium," Wozniacki said. "It's a great atmosphere. I'm just happy to be through to the third round."
Wozniacki's third-round opponent will be another player from Taipei, Yung-Jan Chan.
Seventh-seeded Wimbledon runner-up Vera Zvonareva and 11th-seeded former U.S. Open titlist Svetlana Kuznetsova were a pair of seeded Russian victors on Day 4 at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Zvonareva got past big- serving German Sabine Lisicki 6-1, 7-6 (7-5), while the two-time major champion Kuznetsova continued her recent resurgence with a 6-2, 6-3 spanking of Latvian Anastasija Sevastova. Kuznetsova captured the year's final Grand Slam event back in 2004 and was the runner-up here in 2007. Zvonareva lost to the mighty Williams in July's Wimbledon finale.
Belgian slugger Yanina Wickmayer, the 15th seed here, handled German Julia Goerges 6-4, 7-5 to improve to 7-1 in her last eight matches in Flushing. Wickmayer was a surprise semifinalist here a year ago.
In some upsets, 18-year-old American Beatrice Capra upended 18th-seeded Frenchwoman Aravane Rezai 7-5, 2-6, 6-3, while Swiss veteran Patty Schnyder topped 22nd-seeded Spaniard Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez 7-6 (7-2), 6-4.
Additional second-round wins came for Spaniard Lourdes Dominguez Lino, Slovakian Dominika Cibulkova and the aforementioned Chan.

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.
