"I definitely wanted to play better than I did the last few times I played her. Just wanted to do some different things. The last few times I played her, I didn't play that well and I was stuck," she added.
Third seed Safina was somewhat erratic but almost always dictating play against her seventh-seeded countrywoman, hitting over twice as many winners (28-13) but also over twice as many errors (42-19) during the match.
Zvonareva did serve for the second set leading 6-5 but was broken easily, and Safina capped the win with a routine 7-4 tie-break, ending it with a scorching forehand.
In the final, if Safina wins she will take over from Serb Jelena Jankovic as the world number one, as will Williams if she wins.
