Big-serving Hubert Hurkacz blasted his way into the final of the Shanghai Masters on Saturday with a ruthless 6-3, 6-4 win over Sebastian Korda of the United States.
The 16th-seeded Pole sent down 13 aces as he barrelled his way into a meeting with either fifth-seed Andrey Rublev or 18th-seed Grigor Dimitrov.
They play their semifinal later on Saturday.
The 26th seed Korda was always up against it in the face of a clinical Hurkacz, who has six titles already including winning the Miami Masters in 2021.
The 26-year-old Pole was never really in trouble on his powerful serve and wrapped up the last-four encounter on his second match point after 77 minutes.
