SINGAPORE — It proved a happy Halloween for Czech Petra Kvitova after she made the most of coming back from the dead to set up a title-match showdown with Agnieszka Radwanksa at the WTA Finals.
The double Wimbledon champion was reflecting on her year, believing her singles season was over, after losing to Garbine Muguruza in her final round-robin match on Friday, only for Lucie Safarova to beat Angelique Kerber in straight sets and send Kvitova through.
The world number five made the most of the unlikely semi-final chance as she produced her best display of the week to beat Russia's Maria Sharapova 6-3 7-6(3) at the Indoor Stadium on Saturday.
