Qualifier to face Serena Williams in Leipzig
September 24, 2002
LEIPZIG, Germany (AP) -- Qualifier Anca Barna defeated Elke Clijsters, sister
of defending champion Kim Clijsters, 6-4, 6-3 Tuesday to advance to the
second round of the $585,000 Sparkassen Cup.
Barna will face top-seeded Serena Williams, who has won the French Open,
Wimbledon and the U.S. Open this year, on Wednesday. Barna played Williams
at the U.S. Open two years ago and won a set.
``Maybe Serena will have adjustment problems on this surface,'' said Barna,
who reached the final at Estoril earlier this year. ``I've already played
four matches -- plus she doesn't like my slice serve.''
In other matches, Janette Husarova defeated eighth-seeded Magdalena Maleeva
3-6, 6-2, 6-3; American Meghann Shaughnessy beat Russia's Elena Likhovtseva,
6-3, 3-6, 6-2; Iveta Benesova defeated Paola Suarez, 6-3, 6-1; and Barbara
Rittner topped Eleni Daniilidou 6-3, 3-6, 7-6 (1).
