PARIS - Petra Kvitova, World No. 18 from Czech Republic, cruised in to the final of Paris Open thrashing American Bethanie Mattek-Sands 6-2, 6-0; wrapping the match within just an hour.
The 20-year-old, Kvitova, broke 48-ranked American Mattek-Sands' serve three times in each set to be in the Sunday’s tournament final against Australian Open Champion Belgian Kim Clijsters or third-seeded Kaia Kanepi of Estonia. The second semifinal will be played on today (Saturday, Feb. 12).
Kvitova's last tournament triumph was at Brisbane in January 2011. She then had a attacking run at the Australian Open where she upset Samantha Stosur on her way to a second Grand Slam quarter-final appearance.
