Wozniacki eager to exorcise memories of Li loss

MELBOURNE - Second-seeded Caroline Wozniacki says her 2011 Australian Open semifinal loss to China's Li Na still haunts her as she tries to go one better this year and end her Grand Slam drought.

The Dane held match points against Li on her only previous appearance in the last four at Melbourne Park.

"That's the one that really hurt," Wozniacki said after reaching the semifinals again on Wednesday with a three-set victory over Spain's gritty 39th-ranked Carla Suarez Navarro.
