The 54th-ranked Baghdatis, a 250-1 long shot at the start of the tournament, defeated the fourth-seeded Nalbandian 3-6, 5- 7, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4 late yesterday. The Jan. 29 championship match will be against top-ranked Roger Federer of Switzerland or German No. 21 Nicolas Kiefer, who play today.

"When the tournament is finished, I'll be satisfied because I've given everything these two weeks, '' Baghdatis, the first man or woman from Cyprus to be ranked in the top 100, told reporters. ``I have to give everything in the final."

The 20-year-old Baghdatis, in his sixth Grand Slam event, is trying to become the first unseeded player to win at Melbourne Park since Mark Edmondson in 1976. He upset No. 2 seed Andy Roddick and No. 7 Ivan Ljubicic to reach the semifinals.

Baghdatis twice recovered after losing his serve in the final set before breaking Argentina's Nalbandian for a third time to lead 5-4. Play was suspended with the score tied at 15- 15 in the next game as rain poured down on Rod Laver Arena.

Following a 26-minute delay to close the roof and mop the court, Baghdatis was initially denied victory when the chair umpire overruled a line call. Television replays showed the original call was good. Baghdatis sealed the win later in the game with an ace.
