Vera Zvonareva forgets double faults, remembers winners

Vera_640 When Vera Zvonareva double faulted to end the first set of a semifinal match at the Mercury Insurance Open on Saturday night -- giving it to Ana Ivanovic, who can be nervous herself -- it seemed the worst way to lose. Yet Zvonareva, the 26-year-old Russian who is seeded first, couldn't even remember serving the double fault a couple of hours after she had recorded a 5-7, 7-4, 6-4 semifinal win over Ivanovic.

The match took two hours and 22 minutes and earned Zvonareva a spot in Sunday's final against third-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska.
