Williams overpowered Romania's Sorana Cirstea 6-1, 6-2 in the Bank of the West Classic on Saturday night to set up the first All-American WTA final on home soil in eight years against lucky loser Coco Vandeweghe. Exactly a week after winning her fifth Wimbledon title, Williams cruised to another victory in 60 minutes. The last "lucky loser" to advance to a WTA final was eventual runner-up Melinda Czink in 2005 at Canberra, Australia. The 14-time Grand Slam champion sported a bright yellow shirt and black skirt that looked like one giant blur on the California hard court. Cirstea double-faulted on break point to give Williams a 3-1 lead in the first set, sailed a forehand wide in her only break opportunity ? in the next game, no less ? and became the latest flustered and frustrated Williams opponent. After 102 aces carried her to victory on Wimbledon's grass, she had more double faults (four) than aces (three). Vandeweghe saved four break points in the next game and watched Wickmayer double-fault again on match point.
