KASATKINA, OSTAPENKO REACH VOLVO OPEN FINAL

-

Unseeded Daria Kasatkina of Russia and Jelena Ostapenko of Latvia each moved into position for their first WTA title, winning semifinal matches Saturday in the Volvo Car Open.

Kasatkina rallied from a set down to beat Laura Siegemund 3-6, 6-2, 6-1 and Ostapenko held off the tournament’s lone remaining seed in No. 11 Mirjana Lucic-Baroni, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.

Neither Kasatkina nor Ostapenko, both 19, have won a WTA title and will be seeking the first of their careers when they face off in Sunday’s final.
