One of the winningest players of late on the ATP Tour is one win away from his second title this season at the Moselle Open in Metz, France.
WTA: Ivanovic and Wozniacki Face Off in Tokyo Final
No. 8 seed David Goffin of Belgium booked his place in the final with a straight sets win over Jan-Lennard Struff.
Goffin, who upset top seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga earlier in the week, needed just over 90 minutes in beating Struff 7-6(4), 6-3. Goffin hit 14 aces and saved five out of six break points against him.
Though starting out this season ranked No. 110 in the world, Goffin has been on a hot streak staring late this summer. Winning his first title in Kitzbuhel a few months ago, Goffin has now won 33 out of his last 35 matches.
In the second semfinal, No. 8 seed Joao Sousa took out the always-popular Gael Monfils who won the event back in 2009.
Fighting off eight out of nine break points held against him, Sousa beat Monfils 7-6(6), 6-2.
Sousa is also seeking his second career title having won his maiden one in Kuala Lumpur last year.
