EASTBOURNE, England — Madison Keys has advanced to the Eastbourne International final by beating seventh-ranked Coco Gauff 6-3, 6-3. It was Keys' first grass-court victory over a top-10 player since beating Angelique Kerber for the Eastbourne title in 2014. Keys will play ninth-seed Daria Kasatkina in the final of the Wimbledon warm-up tournament. Kasatkina advanced with a 6-2, 7-5 win over Camila Giorgi. In the men's semifinals, fourth-seeded Francisco Cerundolo was on the brink of beating Mackenzie MacDonald when rain stopped play. Cerundolo led 2-6, 7-5, 5-2 when the match was halted. It will resume Saturday, when Tommy Paul will also play Gregiore Barrere in the other semifinal.
