Petrova to meet Schnyder in last four

Top seed Daniela Hantuchova is through to the semi-finals of the Bali Open after a tough battle against Taiwan's Chan Yung-jan. Hantuchova came through 7-6 4-6 6-2 to join Nadia Petrova and Patty Schnyder in the last four. The Slovakian took the first set on a tie-break after sharing eight breaks of serve with her opponent, who was a semi-finalist in Strasbourg in May. Chan hit back to win the second set, but Hantuchova dominated the third to win the match in a little over two-and-a-half hours. Schnyder, the second seed, will face Petrova in the semi-finals after a 6-2 6-2 demolition of Marta Domachowska. "I made few early errors and had a great start," said Schnyder, a quarter-finalist at the recent US Open. "She had to adjust to my game and didn't like it." Fourth seed Petrova overcame a poor start in her quarter-final, recovering from 4-1 down in the first set to beat Francesca Schiavone 6-4 6-3.
