17-year-old Czech Vondroušová reaches first career semifinal at Biel
Are you ready for another Czech lefty with out-of-this-world talent? Ready or not, here she comes. 17-year-old
Markéta Vondroušová
stormed past compatriot
Kristyna Pliskova
and into the Ladies Open Biel Bienne semifinals on Friday with a 6-2, 7-5 victory.

Schiavone Turns Back Clock, Reaches Bogota Final
In the last 52 weeks
Vondroušová
has gone 31-6 at all professional levels with two ITF titles and four finals, but not until this week at Biel, Switzerland did she assert herself against the tour-level and against the Top 100.
Playing her first tour-level event since last April at Prague,
Vondroušová
has rolled to the semifinals (career record: now 4-1), notching her first two Top 100 wins in the process.
But the tests will only get tougher for the World No.233 – she’ll face fellow Czech
Barbora Strycova
in Saturday’s semis in her first match against a Top 20 player.
Strycova passed through to the semis when
Julia Goerges
had to retire down a game in the third set due to injury.
The other semifinal at the inaugural Biel event will feature qualifier
Aliaksandra Sasnovich
vs.
Anett Kontaveit
.
