07/12/2010 - Palermo, Italy (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Wimbledon semifinalist Tsvetana Pironkova and Wimbledon quarterfinalist Kaia Kanepi were among Monday's opening-round winners at the $220,000 Palermo International tennis tournament.

The fourth-seeded Pironkova, of Bulgaria, got past Italian wild card Anna Floris 6-4, 7-6 (7-4), while the fifth-seeded Kanepi, of Estonia, defeated Paraguayan veteran Rossana de los Rios 7-5, 6-4 on the red clay at Country Time Club. Pironkova's second-round opponent will be 36-year-old American Jill Craybas.

Craybas fought her way past Uzbekistan's Akgul Amanmuradova 7-6 (12-10), 7-5, while another first-round result saw Colombia's Mariana Duque Marino handle Slovakian Zuzana Kucova 6-4, 6-0.

Sixth-seeded Peng Shaui pulled out of the draw here on Monday, citing a left ankle injury.
