BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 10 (UPI) -- Agnes Szavay and Patty Schnyder, who met for the championship at the Budapest Grand Prix last year, will stage a rematch for the crown Sunday.

Szavay and Schnyder won their semifinal matches Saturday, both of them needing three sets to do so.

In last year's title match, Szavay defeated Schnyder 2-6, 6-4, 6-2.

Szavay, from Hungary, reached the finals Saturday by defeating Romanian Alexandra Dulgheru 6-1, 5-7, 7-5. The Swiss native Schnyder ousted Zuzana Ondraskova of the Czech Republic 6-2, 4-6, 6-3.

Neither of the two championship match participants has won a tournament this year. Schnyder has won 11 titles in her career and Szavay has captured three.
