WOZNIACKI REACHES FINAL IN MIAMI OPEN TENNIS

-

Roger Federer and Caroline Wozniacki rolled through the first few matches of the Miami Open, never facing any significan­t challenges. That changed Thursday, and both survived. Fourthseed­ed Federer fought off two match points before defeating No. 10 Tomas Berdych 6-2, 3-6, 7-6 (8-6) in a quarterfin­al match. Wozniacki rallied with far less drama, the No. 12 seed topping second-seeded Karolina Plisko

va 5-7, 6-1, 6-1 to reach the final in Key Biscayne, Fla., for the first time in her 10 appearance­s in the tournament. Nick Kyrgios defeated 16th-seeded Alexander

Zverev 6-4, 6-7 (9-11), 6-3 in the last of the men’s quarterfin­als.
