WTA Linz pick - Semifinal

I'm going to give a chance to Flipkens, back @2.66.
Well, said like this looks like she hasn't any chance to win, while what I actually think is that she's got many, and that her recent form gives her many.
The belgian won 15 of her last 16 matches, losing only to Azarenka at the US Open, and already caught an indoor title in Quebec City.
I've only seen her 1st set against Ivanovic, so far this week.
It was somehow impressive: Ivanovic was playing well and looked confident like she hasn't been for much time, but yet Flipkens was there, close behind the serbian, and you hardly noticed her since she was silent and unshowy.
She's an all around player, not an hard hitter though. She'll cause trouble to Goerges in the same way she did yesterday to Ivanovic, making her move from side to side on the baseline, also pushing the german beyond the drive with the forehand. Both Goerges and Ivanovic have many problems about movements and balance.
