Marton Fucsovics is into the biggest final of his career after a dominant 6-4, 6-1 victory over Borna Coric in the semifinals of the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament.

The Hungarian has won six matches this week after coming through qualifying and he converted all five break chances he had against the Croat to book a spot in the championship match.

Hungarian continues incredible run into final

Fucsovics began the match with a break to love, rifling a backhand winner down the line on break point. Coric would break back midway through the first set, but the Hungarian broke again when the Croat missed on a forehand.

Ahead 4-3, Fucsovics, who has dropped just one set in the tournament, held to love to move within a game of the opening set, but he had to save two break points in a 12-point game as he served for the set, finally closing it out with an ace on his second opportunity.
