Vinci to play Begu in Budapest final

Top seed Roberta Vinci claimed a place in the final of the Budapest Grand Prix with a straight-sets win over Klara Zakopalova.

The Italian, who is aiming to win her third WTA Tour title this year, was pushed hard by her third-seeded opponent in a topsy turvy match.
But Vinci edged the number of winning break points by seven to five as she secured a 6-4 6-4 victory.
She will now face seventh seed Irina Begu in tomorrow's final. The Romanian ended the challenge of Spanish fifth seed Anabel Medina Garrigues 6-4 6-4 after one hour and 43 minutes on court.
