Andreescu's string of final appearances extends to WTA 125 event in Colombia

Canada's Bianca Andreescu is heading to another final.

The 26-year-old from Mississauga, Ont., rolled past Slovenia's Polona Hercog 6-1, 6-4 in semifinal action Friday at the DIRECTV Open in Sopo, Colombia.

Andreescu, seeded third in the WTA 125 tournament, will face Elizabeth Mandlik of the United States in Saturday's final.

Andreescu won the Queretaro Open in Mexico earlier this month and finished runner-up at the Cali Open in Colombia last weekend, helping the 2019 U.S. Open champion climb to No. 100 in the WTA rankings.

On Friday, Andreescu hit 18 winners in the 68-minute match.

She saved three of Hercog's five break-point chances while converting five of her nine break opportunities.
