India's tennis sensation Sania Mirza's brilliant run in the $170,000 AIG Japan Open tennis tournament came to an end in the semifinal today after she lost to France's Tatiana Golovin in straight sets.
Tatiana set up a summit clash with Czech Republic's Nicole Vaidisova who beat Russia'a Maria Kirilenko 6-4, 6-2.
The Indian tennis star made a brave comeback from 5-0 down in the second set after being swept away in the first but unforced errors once again came back to haunt her.
