Kyle Edmund has overcome Yoshihito Nishioka to reach the final of the Hong Kong challenger.
The 20-year-old, who has been playing in his first tournament since qualifying for the Australian Open earlier this month, came through a closely-fought first set before running out a 7-6 6-0 winner.
The British number three broke his opponent's serve twice during the opening set, but at 6-5 down, he saved a set point before eventually dominating a tie-break.
The second was plain sailing for Edmund as he broke the 19-year-old's serve three times in a row to record a bagel set to seal his place in Sunday's final.
Edmund, who also reached the final of a challenger event in Yokohama in November, will now play world number 89 Tatsuma Ito.
