Bacsinszky beats Meusburger in rainy Austria

Tennis Betting Lines

07/24/2010 - Bad Gastein, Austria (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Timea Bacsinszky of Switzerland beat Austrian crowd favorite Yvonne Meusburger in the semifinals of the Gastein Ladies tennis tournament on Saturday.

The second-seeded Bacsinszky rallied for a 1-6, 6-4, 6-3 victory to advance to Sunday's final, but she'll have to wait a day for her opponent as rain washed out the second scheduled semifinal between France's Alize Cornet and Julia Goerges of Germany.

Cornet and Goerges will play their semifinal on Sunday morning prior to the title match.

Bacsinszky is in position to claim her second career WTA title and first since last year in Luxembourg.

Meusburger still has never won a WTA singles crown and reached her only title match at this event in 2007.

Bacsinszky appeared to be in major trouble from the outset on Saturday, as she dropped each of her four service games in the opening set. She regrouped in the second and won the set after saving a pair of break points while serving at 5-4.

Rain started to fall in the third and Bacsinszky briefly left the court after complaining to the chair umpire about the conditions. She returned soon after and held serve for a 5-3 lead before breaking Meusburger in the following game to win the match.

Bacsinszky improved to 3-1 lifetime against Meusburger, although the Austrian had won this year's lone previous matchup in the first round of the Australian Open.

Cornet and Goerges may each have needed an extra day of rest after both went three sets to win their respective quarterfinal matches on Friday.

The 20-year-old Cornet has just one WTA Tour title, taking the Budapest crown in 2008. She will appear in her second semifinal of 2010, having lost to Iveta Benesova in Morocco this spring.

Goerges, trying for her first WTA crown, also reached the semifinals last week in Palermo. She has never played Cornet.
