Ana Ivanovic Reaches 1st Final in Over a Year at Linz

Linz WTA Semifinal

7/WC Ana Ivanovic d Roberta Vinci - 63 75

She will face Patty Schnyder in tomorrow's final - H2H: 4-4.

Ana has won the last 4. Patty's last win over her was here at Linz in '05.

The last final Ana contested was a losing effort at Indian Wells in March '09.

The last title Ana actually collected was two years ago here at Linz.

Winning matches: Ana fans should be encouraged by her play of late.

Just stay away from the yogurt - even if Patty puts a bow on it.
