Maria will play the third final in Indian Wells after she defeated Maria Kirilenko of Russia in straight sets: 6-4, 6-3 after one hour and 42 minutes with 29 winners and 17 unforced errors.
After this good result Maria will return to No. 2 in WTA rankings.
After the semifinal Maria said: "She`s someone who has had a few comebacks in this tournament so I had to step it up in the second set. The first set was a little bit shady, the second set was much better."
"She`s always a tough opponent. She`s a grinder, she makes you work really hard on the court and gets a lot of balls back and has a lot of variety too. I certainly don`t want to give her time or any of those opportunities because she is a really good player and I think this was her best tournament yet."
In Indian Wells final, Maria will play against Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark. On head to head, Maria leads Wozniacki: 4-2. Their last match was in 2012, in semifinals at Sony Ericsson Open in Miami where Maria won in 3 sets: 4-6, 6-2, 6-4.
GO MARIA !!!
