09/03/2010 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion Kim Clijsters was a third-round winner Friday at the U.S. Open.

The second-seeded Belgian dropped the first three games of her match against 27th-seeded Czech Petra Kvitova, but wound up taking the final 12 games to complete a 6-3, 6-0 victory at Arthur Ashe Stadium.

Clijsters, who has won 17 straight matches at Flushing Meadows, is aiming to become the first woman to successfully defend her U.S. Open crown since Venus Williams in 2001.

The third-seeded Williams will open the night session against Luxembourg's Mandy Minella.

French Open champ Francesca Schiavone of Italy is also slated to play Friday against Alona Bondarenko of the Ukraine.

Earlier winners Friday included Samantha Stosur of Australia and Russia's Elena Dementieva.

The fifth-seeded Stosur thumped Italy's Sara Errani, 6-2, 6-3, while the 12th- seeded Dementieva was a 7-5, 6-2 winner over Slovakia's Daniela Hantuchova. Stosur and Dementieva will meet in the fourth round.
