Mikhail Youzhny of Russia will play unseeded Robin Haase of the Netherlands in the Swiss Open final after both won their semifinals on Saturday.
Haase rallied from a set down to beat fifth-seeded Feliciano Lopez of Spain, 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 in searing heat in the Swiss ski resort of Gstaad.
The sixth-seeded Youzhny broke Victor Hanescu's serve twice in each set to beat the Romanian 6-3, 6-3. Hanescu, the 2008 Gstaad champion, was called for a time violation in the second set.
The 33rd-ranked Youzhny seeks his ninth career title on Sunday, and his third on outdoor clay.
