So, she indeed won't be participating at Roland Garros.

WTA Berlin

I hope she makes wimbledon.

Semi's Results:

Venus Williams defeats Sprem with 2-6, 6-3 and 6-4.

And ... Mauresmo (2) played against Capriati (6). It was an impressive match by the French, 6-2 and 6-0.

Final:

Williams - Mauresmo

This could be an amazing match ... I'll go for Mauresmo as winner.

Here is the report:

Venus Williams may have to pull out of Sunday's German Open final against Amelie Mauresmo after injuring her ankle during her gruelling semi-final win against little-known Croatian teenager Karolina Sprem on Saturday.

The American won 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 but could be forced to scratch from Sunday's final against the Frenchwoman who eased past sixth seed Jennifer Capriati 6-2, 6-0.

"In the last game I was sliding for a shot and twisted the left ankle," said Williams.

"It's an issue and I don't know what's going to happen. I'm just going to deal with it tonight and see how I'm feeling and how much I can do."

And with the French Open beginning in two weeks, the American may be unwilling to take a chance as she bids for her third straight title.

"Obviously it's important for me to keep fit, whether there's the French Open coming up or not, because I've been down and out so long. And now that I'm in there's no reason for me to go crazy and hurt myself even more. It's a load I'm not willing to take right now.

"But at this moment I'm fully anticipating and extremely motivated to play, so that should help my spirit and my game a lot."
