NEW YORK (AP) — No. 7 Vera Zvonareva has moved a win away from her second Grand Slam final of 2010, defeating Kaia Kanepi 6-3, 7-5 at the U.S. Open.

Zvonareva won the quarterfinal match by getting balls back and watching her 31st-seeded opponent self-destruct. Kanepi, a quarterfinalist at Wimbledon this year, made 60 unforced errors in windy Arthur Ashe Stadium on Wednesday.

The match featured a total of 88 unforced errors and only 28 winners, 10 by Zvonareva. The tone for the match was set early, when the players traded service breaks to make it 1-1 and combined for 12 unforced errors and one winner through the first two games.
