MIAMI, April 1 — Petra Kvitova powered into the final of the WTA Miami Open yesterday with a straight sets victory over Romania’s Sorana Cirstea.

In a battle of two of the WTA’s more experienced players, Cirstea, playing in her first WTA semi-final in a decade, was fastest out of the blocks, taking a 5-2 lead in the first set. The Czech’s momentum carried over into the second set where she broke Cirstea in the opening game, her third straight break, and from then it was smooth sailing for the 33-year-old.
