DUBAI: Garbine Muguruza advanced to the final of the Dubai Tennis Championships taking the first set in her semi-final with Elise Mertens 6-4, before closing the deal in a hard-fought second set tie-breaker 7-6 (7-5). Muguruza, the former world No.1, went 6-3 up in the breaker and finally closed out the win on her seventh match point with some brave play at the net. “It took me quite a few match points to close the match.
