Naomi Osaka reached the Miami Open final after beating Belinda Bencic in a comeback win on Thursday.
The four-time grand slam champion will now play incoming world No. 1 Iga Swiatek for the title in what will be Osaka's first final since the Australian Open last year.
Osaka, who has struggled for form since her break from the sport, recovered from a set down to beat her Swiss opponent 4-6 6-3 6-4 in an entertaining semifinal.
