BASTAD, Sweden (AP)—Gisela Dulko has swept into the final of the Swedish Open after a straight-sets win against her doubles partner Flavia Pennetta.
Fourth-seeded Dulko, of Argentina, broke Pennetta's serve three times in the second set on the way to winning 6-3, 6-1 at the clay-court tournament Friday.
Dulko will play second-seeded Frenchwoman Aravane Rezai in the final. Rezai defeated Lucie Safarova of the Czech Republic 6-3, 6-3.
Pennetta hadn't dropped a set in the tournament before facing Dulko, but had to rescue a break point in the fourth game of the match.
Dulko then broke the top-seeded Italian's serve with the score 2-all and again in the first game of the second set before going on to win.
