-
Karolina Pliskova beat Johanna Konta to book a place in the final of the Eastbourne International on Friday (24th June).
Karolina Pliskova and Johanna Konta could have been excused for feeling jaded with both players going into their second match of the day.
The opening set then perhaps more crucial than ever in this semi-final.
Konta claimed it, on a tiebreak.
Into the second and an awkward looking fall from the Brit.
She carried on, yet didn't look quite right as she lost the set 6-3.
Pliskova broke to lead 3-0 and then saw out the decider.
A solid warm up for Konta ahead of Wimbledon.
She'll now play Dominika Cibulkova in the final.
