Andrey Rublev beat Grigor Dimitrov in straight sets to reach the final of the Shanghai Masters, where he will face Hubert Hurkacz.
World number seven Rublev saved a set point before taking the 76-minute first set and came back from a break down in the second to win 7-6 (9-7) 6-3.
The 25-year-old Russian has won all 10 sets he has played in the event.
He will meet Hurkacz in Sunday’s final after the Polish world number 17 beat American Sebastian Korda 6-3 6-4.
Rublev will be aiming to claim his second Masters 1000 title of the year after winning in Monte Carlo in April.
His win meant disappointment for Bulgarian 18th seed Dimitrov, who stunned Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz in the fourth round and was targeting a first ATP title in six years.
Earlier, 26-year-old Hurkacz hit 14 aces and did not face a single break point as he powered his way past world number 26 Korda in 77 minutes.
