Tommy Robredo 6-3, 6-2 Saturday on the outdoor clay, and Wawrinka defeated Nicolas Almagro 6-3, 7-5 to reach his first final in the Argentine capital. He lost his two other semifinal appearances, including last year to Almagro. "It was a tough match physically," said Ferrer, who has played three straight days. "Maybe it was my best match of the week." Ferrer won in Auckland, New Zealand, last month and will be going for his 20th career title.

Wrestling is partly to blame for the International Olympic Committee's decision to drop the sport from 2020, Nenad Lalovic said. Wrestling needs more user-friendly rules that would benefit spectators, television and athletes, Lalovic said. "If an Olympic champion of 20 years ago were to attend a wrestling tournament now, he probably could not tell what is going on," Lalovic said. Comment?
