Jelena Jankovic and her boyfriend she met in August at the Beijing Olympics were spotted together in Belgrade’s restaurant Madera.

The relationship with Montenegrin water poloist Mladjan Janovic seems to be doing good on the tennis star, as Jelena has recently won two consecutive titles (Beijing and Stuttgart), and climbed back to the top of the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour rankings.

Seventh seed Vera Zvonareva progressed to the quarterfinals of the Kremlin Cup in her home Moscow with a dominant 6-1 6-0 victory over Slovakian Daniela Hantuchova. Also advancing was top seed Jelena Jankovic who beat Russian Vera Dushevina 6-7(6) 6-3 6-2.

Hantuchova scored only five points on Zvonareva’s serve! "I know that one can only have one or two such easy matches in a season," said the Russian.

Jankovic appeared to struggle with a hip injury, and could have lost in straight sets as the world No.77 Dushevina came from behind in the first set, and broke early in the second. But Jankovic stepped up a gear and defeated nervous Dushevina for a place in the quarterfinals.

Also progressing on Thursday were Nadia Petrova and Flavia Pennetta. Petrova's second-round opponent Caroline Wozniacki retired with breathing problems, while Italian Pennetta beat Ekaterina Makarova of Russia 3-6 6-4 6-4.

Second seed Jelena Jankovic defeated Russia’s Nadia Petrova 6-4 6-3 in the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix final to win her second title in two weeks. The victory earned the world No.2 her eighth career title and a shiny red Porsche Carrera 911.

The 23-year-old Serb, who will on Monday return to No.1 in the rankings, also won the China Open last week and now has three titles this season.

Jankovic broke Petrova’s serve in the opening game to take the first set. In the second she led 3-1 with three break points for 4-1, but the 2006 Stuttgart champion Petrova tied at 3-3. Afterward, however, Jankovic regrouped and took the next three games for the title.

Jankovic improved her career record against the world No.18 Petrova to 6-2, with now three of those victories coming at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix.

Second seed Jelena Jankovic edged sixth-seeded Venus Williams 6-7(8) 7-5 6-2, improved to 5-3 lifetime against the American, and set up a Porsche Tennis Grand Prix final against Nadia Petrova.

Russia’s Petrova advanced to the final in Stuttgart with a 6-4 6-4 win over Belarusian Victoria Azarenka, the 19-year-old player who upset fourth seed Elena Dementieva in the quarterfinals.

Jankovic, who was already assured of becoming the new women's world No.1 when the rankings are released on Monday, reached her first final at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix  (last year she was beaten in the semis by Justine Henin) and will face the 2006 Stuttgart champion Nadia Petrova.

Jankovic and Petrova meet for the eighth time in their careers and the Serb leads their series 5-2. Interestingly, two of Jankovic’s victories over Petrova came at the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix, in 2004 (first round) and 2007 (quarterfinals). (photos: Getty Images)
