Wozniacki to meet Cetkovska in New Haven final

Three-time defending champion Caroline Wozniacki beat Francesca Schiavone in straight sets in the semifinals of the New Haven Open, setting up a final against giant-killing Czech qualifier Petra Cetkovska.Wozniacki, who is now 16-0 during her four years at the tournament, downed the third-seeded Italian 7-6 (2), 6-3 and got a kiss from her boyfriend, golfer Rory McIlroy, on court after the match.Cetkovska, ranked No. 40, upset French Open champion Li Na in a dramatic third-set tiebreaker 6-2, 5-7, 7-6 (9) to reach her first WTA final which has been moved forward from 5 p.m. to 1 p.m. local time Saturday to avoid the anticipated effects of Hurricane Irene.The 26-year-old Cetkovska extended her amazing run through the field that had seen her beat Agnieszka Radwanska, Marion Bartoli and now Li seeded fifth, fourth and second respectively to become one of the more unlikely finalists on tour this year.Its amazing, she said. Im really happy about it. If somebody told me that before this tournament, I dont think I would believe it. But since the beginning, I really like the conditions and I was just happy to play every single match.I was really stressed, she said. It was really difficult for me to control my movements. The hand, the legs, everything was slowed down. Its life. Its tennis. There are a lot of emotions. But Im really happy in the end that I could have fight with my emotions and be able to win this match.Tournament officials were hoping to get Saturdays final in before the forecast heavy hurricane rains arrive, but brought in cranes Friday after the semifinals to remove the 2-ton video scoreboards from the top of the Connecticut Tennis Center stadium. Smaller scoreboards were to be installed on the court as a safety precaution.
