Jelena Jankovic is going to face Spaniard Carla Suarez Navarro in the final of Andalucia Tennis Experience tournament. This is going to be first final for Jelena Jankovic this year which has so far been unimpressive for the Serbian star. En route to final, Jankovic defeated Anabel Medina Garrigues 7-5, 6-2 in Saturday’s semi-final showdown which took 2 hours, 15 minutes to decide one of the finalists. The Serbian star Jankovic faced tough challenge from Garrigues in the first set, before clinching the second one pretty easily. In the whole match, Jankovic broke Garrigues on seven occasions, as opposed to four breaks for Garrigues’ favor.
Carla Suarez Navarro got past seventh seed Romanian Sorana Cirstea in a three-set semi final. Navarro met Jankovic twice so far on professional circuit, and lost on both occasions. Jelena Jankovic defeated Carla Suarez Navarro in the quarter final of last year’s French Open. Now, let us see if Jankovic can hold on to her 100 percent winning record against Navarro and clinch the first title of the year. However, one thing is for sure that Jankovic would go into the match as clear favorite.
