Bartoli, Rezai set up all-France final in Indonesia |
![]() ![]() ![]() NUSA DUA, Indonesia (AP) -- Top-seeded Marion Bartoli and Aravane Rezai had straight-set victories on Saturday to line up an all-French final at the Commonwealth Bank Tournament of Champions. Bartoli beat Japan's Kimiko Date-Krumm, 6-1, 6-3 in an 85-minute match. Date-Krumm, who was seeded 12th, had reached the semifinals after Yanina Wickmayer withdrew because of a one-year doping suspension. In the second match, the 10th-seeded Rezai defeated sixth-seeded Martinez Sanchez 6-2, 6-3 in only 64 minutes to advance to Sunday's final. The tournament features the top 10 women who won a WTA Tour event this season but didn't qualify for last week's WTA championships in Doha, along with two wild cards. Copyright 2009 Associated Press.
