Argentine tennis player Guillermo Coria retires

Tennis Betting Lines

04/28/2009 - Buenos Aires, Argentina (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Argentine tennis player Guillermo Coria, a French Open finalist in 2004, announced his retirement on Tuesday citing "no desire to compete."

The 27-year-old Coria won nine titles on the ATP Tour, most recently in 2005 in Croatia. He was ranked as high as third in the world.

"I am very happy with the decision I made because I have new projects and can spend more time with my family," Coria said in a statement through the Argentine Tennis Association.

Coria tested positive for nandrolone in April 2001 and was initially suspended two years, but the penalty was later reduced to seven months after a claim that the only supplement he was taking was a multivitamin from a New Jersey- based company. Coria sued the supplement maker claiming he lost $10 million in prize money, and later settled with the New Jersey company.

At the 2004 French Open, Coria upset former world No. 1 Carlos Moya in the quarterfinals before eventually losing a five-set final to fellow Argentine Gaston Gaudio.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship.  Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92.  After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points.  Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1.  Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years.  With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed.  UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern.  Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier.  OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak.  Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four.  It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta.  But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
