Amelie Mauresmo breezed to a 6-2, 6-1 victory
over Karina Habsudova at the Gaz de France today
and will play Martina Hingis in a repeat of last
month's Australian Open final.
Their quarterfinal match resumes the rivalry
that began before the Melbourne final when Hingis
made disparaging remarks about Mauresmo's body
and sexual orientation, then denied what she said
even though her comments were recorded on tape.
Mauresmo, who is gay, responded by saying that
Hingis had been stupid.
Hingis won the Australian final 6-2, 6-3.
Mauresmo was never in any trouble against Habsudova,
quickly dominating the Slovak's service and asserting
her own powerful game. She won in just 52 minutes.
