Top seeds Hsieh Su-wei and Anabel Medina Garrigues were defeated 7-6, 6-7, 10-8 today in the Unicef Open semifinals by 3rd seeds Alla Kudryattseva and Anastasia Rodionova. In the other semifinal, 4th seeds Vania King and Yaroslava Shvedova defeated Sara Errani and Roberta Vinci 6-3, 6-3.
In singles, top seed and wild card Justine Henin defeated Kristina Barrois, 5th seed Alexandra Dulgheru defeated Yaroslava Shvedova, Kirsten Flipkens defeated Dominika Cibulkova, and 7th seed Andrea Petkovic was victorious over qualifier Sandra Zahlavova. In the semifinals, Henin will play Dulgheru, and Flipkens will play Petkovic.
I don't think it is a lock for Henin like some people do. Petkovic and Dulgheru are dangerous players.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's a lock, either. I'm expecting a final between Henin and Petkovic, however, and--assuming Petkovic learned something from her French Open disaster--it could be really good.
