Open Gaz de France: Bartoli Falls to Chakvetadze
In Sunday's final at the 16th Open Gaz de France, Hungary's Agnès Szavay (7), who defeated Elena Demientieva (4) 6-3, 1-6, 7-5, will face Russian Anna Chakvetadze (1), who ousted local favorite Marion Bartoli 2-6, 6-2, 6-0. After getting off to a flaming start, the Frenchwoman currently ranked 9th in the world failed to maintain her level. With Bartoli suffering from a back problem, the third set was little more than a formality for the Russian.

Agnès Szavay (HUN) def. Elena Dementieva (RUS): 6-3, 1-6, 7-5
