NOSKOVA WAVES TO CROWD STORY: Linda Noskova stunned Jessica Pegula 6-3 1-6 7-6(6) on Saturday (October 4) to reach the China Open final. Czech Republic's Noskova won a two-and-a-half hour battle against former U.S. Open finalist Pegula to reach her first WTA 1000 final. Noskova, 20, landed four aces and frustrated the world number seven with her shots from tight angles to win the first set 6-3. Pegula bounced back to dominate the second, having success with shots down the middle, as Noskova succumbed to a 6-1 loss in less than half an hour. The third set tested both players in an 84-minute battle of grit as neither could hold serve in the first four games. Pegula earned a break to go 6-5 up and serve for the match, but Noskova saved three match points to force a tiebreak. The American quickly went 3-1 up, but made two unforced errors that let Noskova back in and she fell to her knees after Pegula's backhand return landed wide to ending the gruelling match. Noskova will meet Amanda Anisimova of the U.S. in the final on Sunday (October 5). (Production: Andy Ragg)
