Simona Halep has reached consecutive finals at the Rogers Cup as she recovered from a *0-2 deficit in the third set to defeat Angelique Kerber, 6-0 3-6 6-2 in one hour and 38 minutes. Halep won the first and last six games in what was a wild match!
Halep played a superb opening set, hitting eight winners to just two unforced errors and looking rock solid from the baseline. She was given quite the helping hand from Kerber though who committed a whopping 20 unforced errors. Kerber's forehand was sensational in her quarter-final win over Daria Kasatkina on Friday, but it was misfiring in the first set, spraying errors all over the shop.
