Serena Williams has another shot at winning her first Grand Slam title since giving birth after beating Latvia's Anastasija Sevastova in their US Open semi-final.
Williams, beaten by Angelique Kerber in the Wimbledon final in July, won 6-3 6-0 against 19th seed Sevastova.
The 36-year-old will play either fellow American Madison Keys or Japan's Naomi Osaka in Saturday's final.
Victory will equal Margaret Court's record of 24 Grand Slam singles titles.
Williams has already long established her place as one of the all-time greats - if not the greatest - and has another chance to cement that by ensuring no-one else in the history of the game has more major victories than her.
