Andrea Petkovic and Jelena Jankovic will compete tonight in Cincinnati for a place in the final of the Western and Southern OpenYou can watch & bet on the action from the WTA Cincinnati Open at bet365Andrea Petkovic cracked the top ten for the first time earlier this month, and her performances in Cincinnati could very well propel her to a new career best world ranking. The German has worked her way into the semi-finals of this year’s Western and Souhern Open having only lost one set, and she remains on track for her second WTA title for 2011.
Petkovic will now take on Jelena Jankovic tonight for a place in the final. Jankovic was involved in back-to-back three setters in rounds two and three, but she’ll be well rested ahead of this contest. She was handed a walkover victory in the last eight, where she’d been scheduled to face Shuai Peng.
Petkovic has the momentum heading into this clash, and her 2-0 head to head record against the Serb is the result of a pair of wins this season. Both matches went the full distance though, so Jankovic shouldn’t be written off. This could develop into a fascinating matchup.
