Puerto Rico's Puig into women's tennis singles final
Monica Puig reached the Olympic Games women's tennis singles final on Friday to stand one victory away from giving Puerto Rico its first ever gold medal.
The 22-year-old is already guaranteed at least a silver -- only her country's ninth medal at a Games.
She reached Saturday's final by beating two-time Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova 6-4, 1-6, 6-3 in a rollercoaster match which featured 10 breaks of serve.
Puig, the world number 34, will face either German second seed and Australian Open champion Angelique Kerber or American seventh seed Madison Keys for the title.
