Caroline Wozniacki overcomes cramp to close in on WTA Championship semi-finals

Caroline Wozniacki overcomes cramp to close in on WTA Championship semi-finals By Mark Hodgkinson | Telegraph.co.uk Caroline Wozniacki, a Danish teenager and this year’s US Open runner-up, experienced what appeared to be a nasty attack of full-body cramp at Doha’s Khalifa Complex on Thursday, but still managed to defeat Vera Zvonareva. Even though the tennis has not been starting until 5pm each day, after the sun has gone down, the desert heat can still get to the players after dark. Somehow, a tearful Wozniacki hobbled through the next four points of this WTA Tour match after cramping to hold serve, for her second round-robin victory from her first two appearances at the season-ending Sony Ericsson Championships, which put her close to qualifying for the semi-finals here in the Gulf.
