World No 1 Iga Swiatek beat Daria Kasatkina 6-2 6-1 to reach the final of the French Open and extend her own winning streak to 34 matches.
The 20-year-old from Poland has now matched Serena Williams by achieving the second-longest winning streak on Tour since 2000.
If Swiatek is victorious in the final on Saturday, she will equal Venus Williams' achievement of 35 straight wins. Swiatek is also the first player to reach six or more finals on the WTA Tour in the first six months of the year since Serena in 2013.
Swiatek needed just 64 minutes on court against Kasatkina to complete her straight-sets win. She has dropped just one set at Roland Garros en route to the final.
