It seemed as the tournament in Katowice had one name already written on the trophy: Agnieszka Radwanska. That wasn’t true.
Agnieszka demolished Alize Cornet in the semifinal opener serving a nasty bagel (6-0) to the Frenchwoman. Then just out of the blue Alize got an early 4-0 lead in the second set to win 6-2.
Things got even more complicated in the 3rd set as Aga got a 3-0 lead to implode again and lose the decider 6-4. Eventually Cornet won the match scoring 6 points less than Radwanska. Match Stats
