Pennetta in Palermo final

Originally published on: 26/02/10 12:41

Pennetta had not lost a set on her run to the last four and emphatically continued that trend as she dispatched compatriot Tathiana Garbin 6-1 6-1.

The world number 15 has never won a title on Italian soil and will look to put that record straight when she contests her second final in Palermo after finishing as runner-up in 2004.

Fifth-seeded Errani needed three sets to defeat Germany’s Anna-Lena Groenefeld at the clay-court event, prevailing 6-3 4-6 6-1 in a tough contest to improve her career record in Palermo to 12-1.
