Zverev has never won an ATP Tour title, but has a chance to change that this weekend following a battling 6-4 3-6 6-3 success against the Japanese.
It will be the 29-year-old’s second final – his maiden showpiece outing came in Moselle seven years ago – and it will come against a player who has won three grand slams, with home hope Wawrinka seeing off Andrey Kuznetsov 6-3 7-6 (7-4).
The Swiss, who will next week seek to claim back the French Open title he surrendered at the semi-final stage last year, will be eyeing his first title of 2017.
