INC. anmca CpM«»ANv Thursday Page Ih September 4, !95 ; Upset-minded Hingis to face Graf in U.S. Open semifinals- NEW YORK (AP) — Like the rabbit in Alice in Wonderland, Martina Hingis knew she had to hurry. So late, so late, for a very important date. The rabbit’s refrain might well have been Hingis’ lament. She had a mixed doubles semifinal match over on Court 16, and here she was still in the stadium play ing singles against Jana Novotna in the U.S. Open quarterfinals. What to do? Shorten the points, of course. Hingis did just that, rushing the net the way another Martina once did and dancing into the semifi nals at age 15 on Wednesday. Next up is that other Martina’s old nemesis, Steffi Graf. Hingis, named after Navratilova and guided toward a tennis career since birth, beat the No. 7 Novotna 7-6 (7-1), 6-4 to become the youngest Open semifinalist since Jennifer Capriati in 1991. In the men’s quarterfinals, Andre Agassi and Michael Chang won to set up a meeting in Saturday’s semifinals. Agassi, No. 6, beat No. 3 seed Thomas Muster 6-2, 7-5, 4-6, 6-2 Wednesday night to move within a victory of his third straight Open final. Agassi won the title two years ago, then lost in the final last year to Pete Sampras. Chang, No. 2, beat unseeded Javier Sanchez 7-5, 6-3, 6-7 (7-2), 6-3 in a nearly three-hour base line duel Wednesday and reached the Open semis for the first time since 1992. The 1989 French Open champion at 17, Chang is still seeking his second Grand Slam title. The top-seeded Sampras plays Alex Corretja on Thursday, and No. 4 Goran Ivanisevic goes against two-time champion Stefan Edberg for the other semi final spots. Two days after knocking out No. 3 Arantxa Sanchez Vicario, Hingis put on an even more spec tacular show of versatile tennis by taking apart Novotna from the baseline and the net. “I’ve played so many match es, I wanted to make some points shorter,” 5 ast rj , iRi Bob Do the head epublic ‘Tve played so many matches, I wanted to make some points shorter." the semis in all three eventsu Novotna in 1994. 1 lingis had to get this oneoi quickly, she said, because i had a mixed doubles semife match to play with panrf Christo van Rensburg. lift had a decisii match was scheduled “not h'make. 5 p.m.” She would be late, her.

Hingis, who became the youngest champion at Wimbledon when she won women’s doubles with Helena Sukova this summer, was still going at the Open for three titles — singles, doubles and mixed doubles. Why was Hingis playing so much tennis? "I have a lot of fun playing doubles, and I have great part ners, so why not?” Hingis replied. The last player to reach head line. talents were onftched.
