VIENNA, Austria -- Top-seeded Juan Martin del Potro and qualifier Grega Zemlja advanced to the final of the Erste Bank Open Saturday. Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping . A runner-up last year, Del Potro defeated Gilles Muller of Luxembourg 7-6 (4), 7-6 (5) to reach his fourth final of the year, while Zemlja rallied to stun second-seeded Janko Tipsarevic 3-6, 7-6 (5), 6-2 and become the first Slovenian player in an ATP Tour final. "I am a guy for history," said Zemlja, who also was his countrys first player to qualify for a Grand Slam event at Wimbledon in 2009. "This is really something special and it makes me a happy man." The 70th-ranked Zemlja was 0-4 against top-10 players. The Slovenian played 15 sets to get to the final, Del Potro seven. "This is an incredible dream," said Zemlja, who defeated third-seeded Tommy Haas in the quarterfinals. "I am full of confidence now. I have no tactics yet to play Del Potro. I will have to talk to my coach first." In his 17th career final, Del Potro is looking for his 12th title and third of the season after winning in Marseille and Estoril. He has never played Zemlja before. Del Potro is playing his first tournament since returning from a wrist injury that sidelined him for more than a month. "Being in the final means a lot to me after a month without playing," he said. "I am getting better match by match. I am improving on my game, on my confidence. I am happy to play my second final in a row here." Del Potro said he was especially satisfied with his serve. He won all 38 service games this event, and in Wednesdays second round, Del Potro and Daniel Brands of Germany hit 30 and 32 aces respectively to set an all-time record for most aces in a best-of-three match. His semifinal consisted mainly of short rallies and featured no breaks of serve. Del Potro converted his fourth match point with his 17th ace, while Zemlja had 16 aces. Its his return that he needs to improve, Del Potro said. "Once again, I did not take my break point chances in this match so I will work on that," he said. "I miss a lot of break points. Against this kind of player, one break point is like match point or set point." Zemlja was on the brink of defeat against Tipsarevic after losing the opening set and trailing the Serb 3-1 in the second. He broke back and got the match under control. "Only in the third set I started thinking about winning," Zemlja said. "I got the feeling the match was in my hands but it was hard work and I had to stay focused until the last point." Tipsarevic said he lost the match in the second set as he failed to build on his lead. "I was too passive, I was waiting for Zemlja to give me the victory instead of going for it," the ninth-ranked Serb said. "I didnt stay focused until the end of the points." In the third set, Tipsarevic got medical treatment for an injury to his right shoulder, which has caused him problems in the past. "It was bothering me for almost two years but in the last year and a half I didnt feel it all," Tipsarevic said. "I hope its not too serious." Cheap Jerseys USA .

Cheap Jerseys Online . -- Canadian Steve Nash knew the scene was more than a bit surreal when he stood in the Los Angeles Lakers training complex, grinning and holding up a gold No. HAMILTON, Ont. -- Scott Piercy is discovering that not everything you dislike is bad for you. After two birdie-filled rounds at the RBC Canadian Open, Piercy found himself holding a share of the midway lead with William McGirt. And hed seen just about enough of Hamilton Golf and Country Club. "I will tell you this golf course takes the juices out of it for me," Piercy said Friday after he and McGirt matched the tournaments 36-hole scoring record. It was an unexpected comment from a player who has slept on a lead just six times in his PGA Tour career -- including twice this week. After matching Hamiltons course record with an opening-round 62 on Thursday, Piercy followed it up with a 67 to join McGirt (66) at 11-under 129. That was one shot better than Robert Garrigus (66), two ahead of Bo Van Pelt (66) and three up on Vijay Singh (67), Tim Clark (62) and Josh Teater (65). Piercy had a relatively easy time getting around the classic H.S. Colt design over the first two days, but didnt like the path he had to travel to do it. The tight, tree-lined layout demands precision off the tee and often forces players to play it safe. "This golf is boring golf for me," said Piercy. "Im not going for it, Im not trying to put my foot on the accelerator. Im kind of touch and go." McGirt was in much better spirits than his fellow co-leader after a round that included a 50-foot birdie putt from the fringe on No. 8. The second-year tour player is chasing his first victory and hes anxious to see how his game holds up over the pressure of the weekend. "There are still 36 holes left," said McGirt. "There is a lot of golf left." Even though none of Fridays afternoon starters could match the score posted by Piercy and McGirt, a handful of more experienced players started to make their presence felt on the leaderboard. Van Pelt sent up a roar from the gallery after holing out from 143 yards for eagle on No. 9 -- his last of the day -- while Clark reeled off six birdies and added a holed-out eagle of his own to match the course record with a 62. "It was obviously a great day for me," said Clark, a former winner on the Canadian Tour. "Im excited. It is nice to be back up in Canada, I have some good memories up here. The course suits me well, too, and Ive enjoyed playing." Alsoo lurking was Singh, who is looking for his first PGA Tour victory in four years. Cheap Jerseys Store. . Five Canadian players survived the cut led by David Hearn of Brantford, Ont., who shot a second straight 68 and is seven shots back. Matt McQuillan (67) of Kingston, Ont., amateur Albin Choi (68) of Toronto, Graham DeLaet (69) of Weyburn, Sask., and Matt Hill (69) of Brights Grove, Ont., will also be around for the weekend. Hearn was left hoping the course would start playing a bit tougher in the final two rounds. "I was steady again today, I just didnt make quite as many birdies as I would have liked," he said. "Im certainly not out of reach for this tournament -- guys are shooting 62s and 63s. If I was to get hot tomorrow and put one of those in, you never know whatll happen." The week came to an abrupt end for British Open champion Ernie Els, who earned loud cheers wherever he went but missed the cut with rounds of 72 and 70. The South African was disappointed he couldnt reward the fans with a performance like he put on at Royal Lytham & Ste. Annes last weekend. "Its unfortunate I didnt have my game with me," said Els. "Theres always next time." The scoring has been better at Hamilton than the last two times the Canadian Open was held here. Rain left the greens soft and receptive, and gave players the opportunity to lift, clean and place their balls in the fairway for both rounds. With more rain expected early Saturday, a compressed third round will be played with threesomes going off both tees. Even though Piercy hasnt found the course to his liking so far, he acknowledged that a good showing could change his outlook on the place. "If I win, Ill have a lot of fun," said Piercy. "Hopefully the next two days go well. ... Its fun at the end of the week when you put it together."
