Jared Dudley Jersey . The 20-year-old came through qualifying and won eight matches to claim her first tour title at the Wimbledon warm-up event. She also earned a wild card to compete at the All England Club next week. "It was like this came out of nowhere," said Oudin, who didnt expect to win her first title on grass. "Id been working away for a long time, and I was waiting for something to happen and it didnt. Until now, that is." Oudin, who has been recovering from an injury, become the first player ranked outside of the top 200 to capture a main tour title since Kim Clijsters won the US Open in 2009. Oudin was eliminated in the second round of French Open last month by Sara Errani, who reached the final. Oudin was a 2009 U.S. Open quarterfinalist, but has struggled since that breakthrough. She beat two other seeded players on the way to the Birmingham final -- 10th-seeded Sourana Cirstea of Romania in the first round and eight-seeded Ekararina Makarova of Russia in the semifinals. She also beat Jankovic before -- during their first and only previous meeting in Wimbledon three years ago. On Monday, Oudin used a strong forehand and slice on the grass and moved well despite playing seven matches to reach the final. Jankovic struggled with concentration and movement. She appeared tired at times after the 4-hour, five-set semifinal match against Zheng Jie of China the previous day. Both players competed in two matches Sunday because of rain delays.

The Angels followed up a nine-run sixth inning on Monday by sending seven hitters to the plate in the sixth on Tuesday. John Stockton Jazz Jersey . Advantage, Djokovic. The top-ranked Serb got the big break when he needed it late in the third set and held off Murray 4-6, 6-3, 7-5 at the O2 Arena. "Another great match. Another great performance from both of us," said Djokovic, who has known Murray since they were 11 years old. Chris Paul Swingman Jersey . Then they went out and earned it. Nick Young scored 19 points off the bench, Blake Griffin added 17 and Randy Foye 13 to beat the Thunder 92-77 on Monday night.ST. LOUIS - Centre fielder Jon Jay was put on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday by the St. Louis Cardinals because of shoulder soreness. St. Louis played the finale of a five-game homestand with only one regular outfielder, left fielder Matt Holliday. Right fielder Carlos Beltran missed his second straight start due to a minor knee injury but was available to pinch hit, and first baseman Lance Berkman was a late lineup scratch. "We decided to stay cautious with Carlos and give him another day," manager Mike Matheny said. "His knee has been barking." The team gave no reason for scratching Berkman, who had played two games since coming off the disabled list from a left calf injury. Jay injured his right shoulder when he banged into an outfield wall last month. Udonis Haslem jersey. Hes 3-for-18 on the homestand with one hit, a bunt single, in his last 15 at-bats.

Robinson was 3 for 4 with a triple Monday, and arrived minus his equipment. Robinson planned on asking utilityman Skip Schumaker, who started in centre field, for a few items of equipment to tide him over. "I didnt think anything would happen this soon. But it did," Robinson said. "Its been pretty chaotic." Third baseman David Freese, in an 0-for-11 slump, also was not in the lineup. ' ' '
