The Czech fifth seed will meet Ashleigh Barty in tomorrow’s final, after the 12th seeded Australian beat Estonia’s Anett Kontaveit 6-3 6-3 in the other semi-final on a day that tested the patience with a seemingly endless number of rain delays. Suitably buoyed, Pliskova raced through the second set and was on the brink of victory, up 5-0 when another shower sent the players to the locker room as the clock struck midnight.Earlier, Barty was forced to wait out an hour-long rain delay before her match and when it started she and 21st seed Kontaveit were only on the court for about five minutes before weather halted play again.
Barty finally secured the win with an ace on her second match point, six-and-a-half hours after the original scheduled start.
