Published January 13, 2015

Luxembourg City, Luxembourg (SportsNetwork.com) - Former world No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki topped Wimbledon runner-up Sabine Lisicki in the semifinals of the Luxembourg Open and will meet Annika Beck for the title on Sunday.

The top-seeded Wozniacki won the matchup of former Luxembourg runners-up in a 6-4, 6-4 decision and will next square off against Beck, who held a 7-5, 1-0 advantage when Stefanie Voegele retired.

Wozniacki, the 2008 Luxembourg runner-up, has reached her second final of 2013 and first since losing to Maria Sharapova in Indian Wells. The Dane is 20-13 all-time in title matches and hasn't won a tournament since last October in Moscow.

Beck will play in a WTA final for the first time. The 19-year-old German's best previous result this year was a semifinal loss to Roberta Vinci in Poland back in April.

Wozniacki and Beck will meet for the first time on Sunday, with the winner earning a first prize of $44,000.
