News posted by www.newsinfoline.com

Unseeded Spaniard Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez produced a major surprise when she beat world number seven Jelena Jankovic 7-6 7-5 in the Italian Open final on Saturday.The Serb, who frequently looked bewildered by her opponent's unorthodox style, pulled back from 4-1 down in the first set and had a set point on serve at 6-5 before losing the tiebreak.Jankovic then twice recovered breaks in the second set but Martinez Sanchez was not to be denied after breaking for the third time.Seventh seed Jankovic beat Serena and Venus Williams earlier this week but fell agonisingly short in her bid for a third Italian Open title.
