After Garbine Muguruza got a walkover into the Qatar Total Open title match when Simona Halep withdrew from their semifinal on Friday, Saturday’s schedule featured just the Petra Kvitova vs. Caroline Wozniacki semi, which the Czech won 3-6 7-6(3) 7-5, extending her winning streak to 12. Let me remind you that just a year ago we weren’t even sure Petra would again play professional tennis!
Wozniacki twice had a chance to serve out the match in the second set, but Kvitova forced a tiebreak and won six consecutive points to clinch it from 1-3.
