Doha, Qatar (Sports Network) - Second-seeded Russian Anastasia Myskina was
among Friday's quarterfinal winners, but third-seeded Bulgarian Magdalena
Maleeva was not as fortunate at the $170,000 Qatar Open tennis tournament.
The world No. 11 Myskina dismissed fellow Russian Dinara Safina 6-2, 7-5,
while another Russian, fifth-seeded Elena Likhovtseva, leveled Maleeva 6-4,
6-2 on the outdoor hardcourts at Khalifa International Tennis Complex.
In Day 5's other round-of-eight matchups, Russian Lina Krasnoroutskaya took
advantage of injured seventh-seeded Spaniard Conchita Martinez, 7-6 (7-4),
4-0, retired, and Austrian Patricia Wartusch posted one of the day's three
upsets with a 0-6, 6-2, 6-4 decision against eighth-seeded Aussie Nicole Pratt.
The former Wimbledon champion Martinez gave way to an ankle injury.
The upstart Krasnoroutskaya took out top-seeded and defending champion Monica
Seles in the second round.
Saturday's semis will feature three Russians, as Myskina will meet Wartusch
and Likhovtseva will face Krasnoroutskaya in an all-Russian affair.
