She made it happen there, Hadad Maya.
Much better.
That's very good.
It does feel actually that...
Not easy with the wind.
The best point we've seen.
And what a start to the game for Kunumatova.
Well I think that point will cheer that baby up.
That was so brave.
To take that out of the air.
That will help her course.
Give her where she was.
Her favourite shot.
Loves it.
Gripping and ripping there.
Beautiful tennis.
How about this?
These two points.
Front foot, full commitment.
She didn't really want to come forward with the previous one.
But when she did find herself at the net,
that was a nice volley.
And she clinches victory.
And a seventh final on the WTA Tour for Hadad Maya.
What a fine end that was for her.
She's been in great form of late.
And the third seed.
Liking it here in Seoul.
Former finalist.
She's back in the final.
Seven years after she was first there.
That's what she's capable of.
Nicely finished off there, Schneider.
She's got great hand scores, hasn't she?
Arguably the best in the women's game.
That's superb tennis.
That's really good tennis.
Going in behind Kazatkina.
Nicely finished off from Kazatkina.
It was the previous shot.
Worked it so nicely, didn't she?
Kazatkina.
Another final.
That's a lovely point to start the game.
Try and respond and get the break back.
It's dropped in.
It didn't look like it was going to go in.
But the spin.
And maybe it wasn't out of the center of the racquet.
Hell.
I think she was covering it.
But decided to leave it.
And that was an error.
A judgment from Kazatkina and Schneider.
With a third break of serve already.
Magnificent hitting.
Smart in terms of putting the ball back on the island.
Two match points.
And Kazatkina reaches her fifth final of the season.
She started the year so strongly, did Kazatkina.
A little cold in recent weeks.
That was not necessarily her best performance.
Difficult conditions.
But as we know, she's such a smart player.
And trailed in both sets.
But she didn't panic.
Remained calm.
