Elena Rybakina didn't show signs of fatigue as she reached the Stuttgart Open final after a win over Mirra Andreeva on Saturday.
The Australian Open champion played a thrilling quarter-final against Leylah Fernandez on Friday, a three-hour match that finished nearly at midnight (2200 GMT).
But Rybakina shook off the dramatic evening and cruised to a 7-5, 6-1 win against Andreeva.
It's her third final of 2026 and she will face Karolina Muchova, who defeated Elina Svitolina 6-4, 2-6, 6-4.
"First set, we were going pretty even. I had some opportunities to go up but didn't take them. But I'm happy that in these important moments, my serve worked and I stayed aggressive. Then in the second set being up, I was more free to hit, to step in, to play even more aggressive," Rybakina said.
"So I'm pretty happy with the performance. It was really solid. And I guess the three-hour match yesterday, it did help me today."
