Kirilenko tops Stosur, Flaviabot next
PARIS, FRA - Longtime ATC Fan Favorite and Top 10 Star Maria Kirilenko has stormed into her first ever Semifinal at Roland Garros with a convincing 7-6 7-6 win over Sam Stosur today.
The bulk of Kirilenko's success this season as come at the Australian's expense, as Kirilenko has dispatched the Australian in 5 of 8 events played this season and has not dropped a set to her.
While Kirilenko and Stosur are good friends off the court, surely the Australian is beginning to develop an inferiority complex of sorts. Along with losing 5 times this season to Kirilenko, the glamorous Russian beat out Stosur for a spot in the famed Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition, while Stosur was selected as 6th alternate for a low profile "Splish Splash Divas" feature of National Geographic (

Vs.
"I wish Samantha and her life partner all the best", said Kirilenko.
Next up for Kirilenko is Flavia Pennetta, who quite frankly scares the bejesus out of Maria.
Pennetta is known to follow Kirilenko around the tour, showing up in the most random of times and places to get close to Maria. "It's so weird, I'm like.. why you so obsessed with me?"
INCIDENT ONE: "At Wimbledon last year, she was laughing to herself and watching my practice in the shadows. CREEP."
When I told her that rats weren't allowed on the lawns of Wimbledon, bitch got all up in my grill:
INCIDENT TWO: "This bitch came up in the mob of fans after my match in Cincinatti asking me for an autograph, asking me to personalize it to say "To my dear Kirinetta
"
INCIDENT THREE: At Montreal last year, before playing my first match, this bitch randomly sits next to me! Here I'm thinking "Ummm when is this bitch EVER going to go away?"
Maria's #1 fan will need all the luck she can get to stop the game's top diva from reaching her second career slam final.
