Unseeded Barbora Krejcikova of the Czech Republic continued her dominant play in the semifinals of the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships and will face former world No. 1 Garbine Muguruza in the tournament final Saturday.

Seeking her first career WTA singles title, Krejcikova has yet to drop a set in Dubai, sweeping past Jil Teichmann of Switzerland 7-5, 6-2 on Friday. No. 9 seed Muguruza needed seven match points to fend off a challenge from No. 10 seed Elise Mertens of Belgium in the earlier semifinal 6-4, 7-6 (5).
