“I will go on and play my game, because I play the best when I play my game,” King said of the final. “Just try to be aggressive, try to control the points. It will be difficult, obviously everyone plays good at this point. That means I have to work for it.”

King broke twice in both sets, getting ahead early on in the score by grabbing the break in each of Osaki’s opening service games.

She’s set to face China’s Ying-Ying Duan in the final after the local pushed past Misa Eguchi in straight sets. This is the 27-year-old’s first time in a WTA-level final.

“I’m very happy to make the final,” Duan said. “[I was] a bit nervous today during the match so I called my coach to court. I believe we both were very keen on winning the match.

“It’s my first time in a WTA final and I have never played Vania before. I think I’ll just give my best and play aggressively.”
