Courier in final four
KEY BISCAYNE. Florida. Mar 28: Jim Courier took another step toward recapturing the form that once
iii uh' him the world's best tennis player by upsetting fourth seed Goran Ivanisevic Thursday to reach the semifinals of the Lipton Championships, reports Reuter.
The 26th-ranked Courier, who won this title in 1991. .bounced the big-serving Croat-ian 6-2. 7-6. to reach the final four here for the fourth time in his career.
Courier, a local favourite in southern Florida, will face second-seeded Austrian Thomas Muster in the semifinals.
Muster, considered the world's premier clay court player, continued to prove he can win on hard courts with a convincing 7-5. 6-2 victory over 29th-ranked Swede Jonas Bjorkman.
Muster, who has only played hard court events this year, ran his 1997 match record to an impressive 19-3.
The other men's semifinal pits top-seeded world number one Pete Sampras against 35th-ranked Sergi Bruguera of Spain.
"It's always a tough one against Jim because we had tough battles in the past." said Muster, who beat Courier in their last two meetings.
"He's playing good tennis. I'm playing good tennis. He’s trying to get back in the rankings. He's going to be motivated to be in the finals here," Muster said of Courier.
Ivanisevic was looking to return to the final here after last
year's disappointment, when he had to quit three games into the final with Andre Agassi due to a neck injury.
He started out well enough, taking a 2-0 lead over Courier. But the American, showing flashes of the form that brought him four Grand Slam titles earlier in the decade, reeled off the next six games to take the first set.
Bashing from the baseline and making occasional forays to the net. Courier committed just six unforced errors in the opening set to 22 for the Croatian.
The fifth ranked Ivanisevic got his dangerous serve on track in tlie second set and both players held serve throughout, forcing the tie-break.
"1 was hoping to keep my momentum going into the second set. but Goran, with his serve, just turned it on." Courier said. 1 wasn't really able to get my teeth into his sendee games there. Fortunately, he wasn't able to do much on mv serve either.
Courier thoroughly outplayed Ivanisevic in the. tiebreaker, jumping out to a 6-1 lead with the help of two double faults by the error-prone fourth seed. The American ended the 78-minute contest by converting his second match point.
Courier, who beat sixth-ranked Wimbledon champion Richard Krajicek in the fourth round, takes consecutive wins over top-10 ranked players into the semifinals — a sign that he is approaching the form that carried him to the top in 1992.
He can make it three successive top-10 scalps with a win over Muster.
Courier said two months off while recovering from a knee injury last autumn had helped renew the enthusiasm for the game he seemed to have lost in recent years.
T got injured and that gave me a chance to kind of let my mind relax as my body recu-perated." Courier said.
"Sometimes it's almost a curse to be healthy all the time, funny as it seems. If you're healthy all the time, you keep going, going, keep grinding yourself down."
Bjorkman played Muster fairly evenly in a tight first set. but he double-faulted at set point in the 12th game while trying to push the set into a tiebreak.
