The moment Suzuki booked dream final with Ashton

On Friday evening, Suzuki – who beat Ashton 2-0 last year – battled past 16-year-old Beau Greaves.
Suzuki survived a first-round scare of her own earlier this week, recovering from a set down to beat Maria O'Brien, and she had to be at her best to beat Greaves.

After Suzuki took the first set, Greaves forced a decider as she targeted a first final.
But Suzuki held her nerve, taking the final set 3-0 to seal a tense victory.
