Nikoloz Basilashvili has booked a spot in the final of the Memphis Open with a straight-sets win over Mikhail Kukushkin.
The Georgian won 7-6 (5) 6-1 on Saturday (Sunday AEDT) in his semi-final clash with Kazakhstan’s Kukushkin at the ATP tournament.
Basilashvili, 24, will play Donald Young or Ryan Harrison on Sunday (Monday AEDT) at The Racquet Club.
The world No.67 reached his first final since 2016 Kitzbuehel, and he advanced by attacking Kukushkin’s serve and eventually wearing him down.
