Monica Seles is heading into tomorrow's semifinal against either top-seeded Martina Hingis or Ai Sugiyama after defeating two impressive opponents. Seles, who has basically been out of commission since mid-Spring because of a foot injury, missed the French Open and WImbledon, but is playing top-notch tennis this week at the Acura Classic. She just defeated the hottest player on the tour, Jennifer Capriati, in 52 minutes. Yesterday, she beat Meghann Shaughnessy, who has come out of nowhere and reached the top 15. Hopefully, Seles can kick some ass tomorrow and increase her fitness (which is already better than it has been in recent years) during the final few weeks before the U.S. Open.
