03/07/2010 - Belgrade, Serbia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Novak Djokovic outlasted big John Isner in five sets on Sunday to lift Serbia past the United States and into the 2010 Davis Cup quarterfinals.
The Serbs have an insurmountable 3-1 lead in the best-of-five showdown at Belgrade Arena.
The world No. 2 Djokovic got everything he could handle from the 6-foot-9 Isner in the first reverse singles rubber, as the former Australian Open champion barely snuck out a 7-5, 3-6, 6-3, 6-7 (6-9), 6-4 decision on the Americans' least-favorite surface, red clay.
Djokovic prevailed in 4 hours, 16 minutes against Isner, who made his Davis Cup debut with a singles loss against Viktor Troicki here on Friday.
A dead rubber will closeout this week's festivities on Day 3.
The Serbs will battle Croatia in the quarters in July.
On Saturday here, an American doubles team of Isner and Bob Bryan got the United States on the scoreboard (1-2) with a clutch four-set doubles victory over a Serbian tandem of Janko Tipsarevic and Nenad Zimonjic. Bryan played without his twin brother Mike on Day 2, as the towering Isner was a late substitute after Mike fell ill due to some food poisoning.
The triumphant Serbs are captained by Bogdan Obradovic, while Team USA is led by Patrick McEnroe, who guided the U.S. to a record 32nd Davis Cup title in 2007.
The Americans have now been relegated to World Group playoffs, as they'll have to qualify for the 2011 World Group.
The U.S. played without its top gun this week, Wimbledon runner-up Andy Roddick, who decided against playing in the prestigious international team event this year.
This marks the first-ever Davis Cup meeting between Serbia and the U.S.

Sportsbook betting odds favor Europe in Ryder Cup
September 19, – Despite holding a decided edge in the all-time series, with 24 wins, 2 ties and 10 losses, Team USA is the underdog again heading into the Ryder Cup in Kidare, Ireland this weekend, according to MySportsbook.com. The Europeans have captured four of the past five editions, including their largest victory ever, an 18 ½ to 9 ½ thumping in Michigan in 2004. Current Ryder Cup betting odds favor the Europeans to continue their winning ways; they are a 4-5 bet to take the title, compared to 6-5 for the Americans.
Despite being knocked out in the first round of World Match play by Shaun Micheel, Tiger Woods is predicted to lead the US charge and be their highest point scorer for the week, with odds listed at 9-4 that he outpoints all other American players, including Jim Furyk, Phil Mickelson and Chris DiMarco to name a few. Team USA has four relatively unknown players on the roster but all four are 2007 tournament winners and have posted some of season’s best performances, each earning over $1.5 million on the PGA TOUR. They include Zach Johnson, Vaughan Taylor, JJ Henry and Brett Wetterich.
The experienced European squad includes the likes of Luke Donald, Sergio Garcia, Padraig Harrington, Jose Maria Olazabal and Darren Clarke, who’s emotions will be tested after the passing of his wife to a battle with cancer. Donald and Garcia are in particularly good form and each is a 5-1 bet to lead the European squad in the points race. Donald has proven he can go head to head with Woods at a major event after a run for the $1.2 million purse at the PGA Championship. Garcia’s Ryder Cup credentials prove he’s ready for battle too.
