ranked outside the top 100 despite reaching the Wimbledon semifinals in 2010,
beat three top 10 players in Sydney, 2012 French Open finalist Sara Errani, 2011
Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova and Kerber. Top-seeded Juan Martin del Potro
will meet reigning champion Bernard Tomic in the mens final. The 2009 U.S. Open
champion had 6-4, 6-2 semifinal win Friday over fourth-seeded Dmitry Tursunov.
Tomic had a 6-7 (4), 7-5, 6-3 win over Sergiy Stakhovsky, who last year beat
Roger Federer in the second round at Wimbledon. Tomics win came only hours after
he was drawn to face No. 1-ranked Rafael Nadal in the first round next week at
the Australian Open. The 21-year-old Australian raced to a 4-1 lead in the first
set but Stakhovsky broke back and rallied to win it in a tiebreaker. Tomic broke
the No. 101-ranked Stakhovsky in the 11th game of the second set and levelled
the match on his fourth set point. He got the decisive break in the seventh game
of the deciding set, and then broke his Ukraine rivals serve again in the ninth
to win on his third match point. "I was very happy to get out of this match. He
should have won," Tomic said, adding that hed have to improve vastly to have any
chance of winning the final against del Potro, who beat him in straight sets in
their only previous meeting. Del Potro, who is also in Nadals quarter of the
draw at Melbourne Park, said he was only concerned about the Sydney final for
now. "Im trying to be professional. This tournament is not over yet for me," he
said. "My team already knows theyre not allowed to talk about Melbourne yet. My
friends, too." Unseeded Lu Yen-hsun of Taiwan stopped David Ferrers bid for a
fifth singles title at the Heineken Open in Auckland, New Zealand, with a 6-4,
7-6 (4) win in his first-ever semifinal at ATP level. Lu moved into a final
against third-seeded John Isner, who rallied from a set and a break down to beat
unseeded Roberto Bautista Agut 3-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4. Ferrer won the Auckland title
in 2007 and in each of the last three years but dropped serve twice and made 20
unforced errors in the first set. "I know hes a tough guy and I tried to play my
best tennis and fortunately I did it," Lu said. "Hes not playing bad, I just
played unbelievable." Ferrer is seeded No. 3 for the Australian Open. In a
preview of their first-round match at the Australian Open, Klara Zakopalova of
the Czech Republic beat 2011 U.S. Open champion Sam Stosur 6-3, 6-2 in the
semifinals of the WTA event in Hobart. Zakopalova will next play Garbine
Muguruza, who beat Estrella Cabeza Candela 6-0, 6-1 in a semifinal between two
Spanish qualifiers. At the Kooyong Classic exhibition tournament in Melbourne,
Richard Gasquet had a 7-6 (3), 1-0 win over Gilles Simon when his fellow
Frenchman retired with an injured right ankle. Gasquet was due to meet Tomas
Berdych in Saturdays final but withdrew later Friday due to general soreness.
Berdych will play Kei Nishikori in the final.
